Today is my two week mark...I am officially allowed to drive today. Sadly I don’t think I will be doing very much driving just yet. I still get pretty sore just doing regular daily activities so James and I agreed that my driving should be limited for another 2-3 weeks. Just go places that are totally necessary and try to still have others drive me places if I can. The less I am doing the better.
The swelling is going down and things are looking a lot better. The glue that is holding the stitches together is starting to come off (as it should) and the shape of the breast is looking a lot more like normal. The daily pain I am experiencing is also greatly improved. It isn't until the end of the day that I get really sore and of course that all depends on how much activity I had.
One thing I am starting to consider is buying a special pillow that allows women with breast implants to comfortably sleep on their stomachs. I have not slept on my stomach in over a year and I can not even tell you how much I miss it. I am beyond sick and tired of sleeping on my back. I saw an advertisement for one and I plan on looking them up and seeing how expensive they are. I feel like this would greatly improve my sleep.
So anyway….that is the update for now. Will write again soon with another update. :)
