New boobs

Just had breast implants a few days ago as I was really unhappy with size due to breastfeeding both dc. Only went from a B to a C to get my volume back.
Only thing is I seem to have packed on the pounds since surgery! I know that 2lb is boobs but my tummy is all bloated and so is my face and thighs. I’m on painkillers and antibiotics and know these can make you constipated but I’ve put on 3kg in 3 day wtf!
Anyone had similar situations? When the gyms re open I’ll be able to get back to light exercise before starting properly. Just shocked at my double chin and wobbly thighs right now 😂

You're likely swollen from surgery and holding on to excess water. Give your body a chance to heal!

Breast augmentation can be a lot to recover from, women are often laid up and very sore for a couple of weeks and it causes swelling. Try to focus on feeling better before worrying about your weight. You should only be doing light exercise over the next few weeks, not a full on gym routine.

I haven’t had the procedure, but I’ve had major surgery. Isn’t it to do with air actually getting trapped inside your body during the procedure?

A few days ago?!
Give yourself a break fgs.

Are you passing urine ok? How does the amount compare with how much you are drinking? Are you breathless at all?

Niceeyes · 04/04/2021 23:01

Yep passing urine fine, drinking loads and resting lots.
Was only going to walk on thread mill in gym, no weightlifting 😊.
Just feel like a bit of a weeble, thought I’d feel super sexy after surgery but just feel frumpy.
DP has just announced he wants to wait 6 weeks before the ‘big reveal’ of the new boobs before any sex 🙈 😂

That is good. Make sure you walk around regularly and do your leg exercises.

Sparklesocks · 04/04/2021 23:04

Did the surgeon explain the recovery process before the surgery and how you might feel/look?

Niceeyes · 04/04/2021 23:08

Yes he explained it all, my boobs look massive 😂 more a Full D right now. Probably swelling but I’ve always been toned and the tummy bloating is unreal for me.
I’m farting and burping like you wouldn’t believe !
