Hi everyone!
Glad to say I’m (21F) officially one week post-op, and very happy with my results so far. I’ve been managing some pain/discomfort of course, and it’s had some ebs and flows, but today has been my best day! (If anyone has tips about how to keep the compression bra from beating the shit out of your under-boob incisions that ARENT putting gauze as a barrier, advice here would also be highly appreciated! I’m dying this is horrible.) Otherwise, things are going great.
To get to the chase/be blunt, my boyfriend and I fuck like rabbits (ADHD x 2) and have been smashing our heads against the wall bc we haven’t done anything in a week and a half. Obviously we’re going to have to ease back into full sexual activity, and i’m not letting him touch my brand new toys for a WHILE, but we’re wondering when we can start said easing.
Dr. Google has warned me to wait at least a week because of blood flow to the breasts, swelling, blood pressure, heart rate, etc etc etc. I’m also going to consult my surgeon about this when I see him to remove the steri-strips from my incisions in a couple of days, but I’d love to hear about anyone’s experience and timelines about easing back into sex or“favours” or canoodling or whatever.
So far the best we’ve gotten (within comfort 100% from both of us, and just today) is making out, and a quick handjob from me. I didn’t want to push anything on my end of receiving until I talk to my surgeon, but he’s also my mom’s colleague at work so there’s only so many thing I can look him in the eye and ask even if she’s not there.
If anyone has advice or time to share their experience, I’d really appreciate it! Thank you for taking the time to read :)
