Well, that didn’t go as I expected. There were no tears of joy with this reveal.
Looking down at them, they look good. But I just saw them full frontal for the first time and… they look weird. I know that is to be expected only 4 days post-op, and that with time they will drop and have more a natural slope. My doctor seemed pleased and reassured me that they won’t look like this permanently. But right now they look like two half bowling balls on my chest. It also physically feels very scary and strange to have these two foreign objects shoved in my chest. Unfortunately instead of relief, I felt another wave of regret. This is the reality of trying to detransition. It’s like trying to put back together an egg that’s already been cracked open. Like I’m trying to pick up the white and yolks desperately trying to get it all back in and taping it back shut. Why oh why did I do this to myself. I miss my natural breasts so so much!!!
