4th expansion....owwweeee!
I now have a grand total oooffffff.........330 ML!!!That a full can of Coke!! =D
I started stretching withing 10 mins of my fill,and have stretched about every 20mins since.Even through the night when i awoke,i stertched.It eases it off no end.Just pushing my shoulders right back and holding for 10 seconds,then releasing,really helps slacken it off.
Had to sleep sitting up on the sofa last night though.May try the bed tonight.
i put this expansion up on youtube this morning so if anyone wants to take a look:

Wow, you did it!
Can of Coke -- you're funny! Can you tell yet if you'll get more expansions?
It's so good and brave of you to put the expansions on youtube -- a useful public service to the many women who will be wondering about this process.0 -

yeah im booked in for
Hiya!
yeah im booked in for another one in 3 weeks. My PS wanted me back in 2 ,but there were no appointments or no clinic that day or something.So it had to be 3 weeks. Unless i get a letter through telling me to go to a different clinic for it which she said may be possible.
That one MIGHT be my final one,but my PS said they MAY do another one after that,but they'd see how the next one goes.
I'm going for the full shebang next time then in case its my last one!!! LOL
That will take me up to 390. If she decides its the last one,i might ask if they can just round me up to 400 the week after and see what she says!! ha ha.
If you dont ask,you dont get!
I do feel rather volutuous today! =D its great! Im still trying to find photo's of women who have had their exchange with anatomical implants. Pref cohesive gel ones,so i can see what they look like.
ps,
My friend asked if they were filling me with vodka when they saw my video!!!!! lol0 -
Congratulations!!
I know you were dreading this after the pain you had the last time but it sounds like it went a lot better. I found that it got a lot easier the farther I got out from surgery, too!0 -

it sounds like you're doing pretty good this time. keeping a sense of humor helps. I'm having to buy new shirts, most of mine are too tight now. NEVER had that problem before---I can't decide if it's a good thing or a bad thing

Hey girl,
You're in the homestretch! You'll feel so much better once those things are finally out! I slept on the couch until I got my expanders out. It was the only way I could get comfortable. (6 weeks on the couch and I got really caught up on all my shows!) 800mg ibuprofen and a heating pad helped a ton too. My first nip reconstruct is scheduled for 6/19. Thinking about ya.

sadly i can still fit into mine as they were always too big around the bust anyway,but they're getting more snug! lol0 -

ha ha yeah i was dreading it BIG time! But so far so good. Im sure keep stretching every 15-20 mins after this fill helped loads. Its nowhere near as tight feeling as all the other fills were.And nowhere near as much pain and discomfort either.
I will do the same next time just to see if it was merely a coincidence or not!0 -
yes and that home stretchSamuraiMom said:Fill-er-up

yes and that home stretch really does feel good! To think i may only have another 2 fills (maybe even just 1) is great! much as though i'd LIKE to keep going so i could be bigger......its still good to be nearing an 'end'. i know i still have the exchange to go,then possible nips (still not decided yet) but the end is in sight (all be it through binoculars!)
I tend to sleep on the couch the night i get a fill and maybe the next night these days but thats all.Didn't take much pain relief last night and not taking any more till my next fill.
Wow so you'll be standing proud come June 19th???!!! LOL Let me know how it goes.Will they do it under local anaesthetic? **winces at the thought!**
much ((hugs))
