Question for the ladies

Did you breasts feel swollen, numb and freakishly large right after surgery? Mine are Lol I'm guessing its due to the gas. I just wasn't prepared for it.

Also did you all wear a bra right away afterwards? I'm thinking it wouldn't be comfy right now

I didn't have the swollen breast. But I did wear me bra right away, I was kind of scared that it would rub my incisions but it was fine.

Very possibly a reaction to iv meds. I would talknto dr or nurse if it doesn't go away quick.

Yes...mine were enlarged....but then again I had had a lot of iv fluids and my abdomen right above the belly button was swollen too. It all went down within the first week post op. I wore a bra home from the hospital but took if off at home .
