4 weeks post op!

I went in for my 4 week check with Dr. Vanek, and told him about wanting to go bigger in size. Realistically, it's far too soon for me to make that decision and I knew it before even bringing up the subject with him! I think he knows what an impatient person I am, and reminded me that I need to allow the healing process to take place. We talked about the implants dropping even more, and he told me to start pushing down on them to help get em where they need to be. Prior to this time, I was only allowed to push them up or together, not down. What a goofy feeling when he was showing me what to do. I haven't been that "rough" with the girls and I wasn't used to all that movement/pressure, but he assured me that everything was fine and I wouldn't pop em! It's still scary for me tho hehe!
I also made sure to ask specifically if I could start running again. Even though I returned to the gym last week, I haven't done any running because I didn't want to compromise my results. I tried for like 20 secs yesterday, but woah that was a crazy feeling! He said I can return to all my normal activities, running included, but some woman are more comfortable wearing 2 sports bras. I had already read about wearing 2 while running, so it didn't surprise me to hear him say it. I'm a little nervous for tomorrow though, which will be my first real attempt since having my surgery. Wish me luck!
On a more personal side, everything is going wonderfully for me. I was thinking that a month ago on today's date, I was in surgery getting my new additions! It really is amazing how fast time flies. Both breasts are feeling softer to me when I massage them. I've been very diligent about using the Kelo Cote every day, and I think my scars look amazing. I still have to remind myself to massage them, and it isn't always in the most appropriate places (riding in the car when hubby is driving!) but I am making sure to be diligent about that as well because it helps keep that hard thick scar tissue from forming.
Speaking of my husband...sheesh....Let me just say this to anyone considering this surgery. Be prepared to have your sex life explode! We had a good sex life before surgery, but now it's....WOW. And it's ALOT! It's not just about my husband being a hornball, it's about me feeling really sexy. And I think it all comes down to that really; I feel more confident about how I look, and that has a ripple effect. But in all honesty, my husband really does love my new boobs, and he can't seem to get enough of them! He's always offering to help massage them, but I have to be mindful of the timing and situation because when he helps, it always leads down another road! This has been a public service announcement, we now return to our regularly scheduled programming! =)
