overthinkingit Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 take your pain meds before you leave, make sure you eat (I didn't and almost passed out half an hour into my 4hr trip) and stop, get out and go for a walk as often as you need to.

Colleena Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I've got my BA/BL tomorrow and have been told to take extra little pillows/cushions to rest your arms on as well. Mine is a 1 hour trip and not looking forward to it. I will also make sure i have some dry biscuits on hand too Boobs4louise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bec_Mummsy Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 My trip home was also 1.5 hours. I was due to have pain meds (panadeine forte) half way home so had some dry bickies in the car to take with them. Also pack a pillow to rest your arms on good luck!

prue Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 My trip home was great it was a bit over an hour but i was so drousy from GA and then given extra pain relief for journey as well as anti nausea tablet. So i didn't use any extra comforts i just had a turkish delight chocolate ? and then i was home ? Boobs4louise and Prettyoriginal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsO Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 My trip home was an hour and a half and it was actually ok. I had so much padding on the boobs that it didn't bother me going over small humps etc. Boobs4louise and Prettyoriginal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ab1990 Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 I had a pillow between me and the seatbelt and a plastic bag in case I felt sick. Everything is so numb that the trip is fine, it's the days afterwards when you get in the car that's awful lol. Every bump in the road is unpleasant.

Colleena Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Thanks for sharing ladies. Definitely feeling less anxious about the trip home after reading your experiences :-) Will ensure i'm pillowed up, fed and drugged lol Boobs4louise and Prettyoriginal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauz Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 I vomited on the way home. So surprised as I've been under general anesthetic 2x already this year and was fine! So strange. Bring spew bag just incase! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naomi49 Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 I only had a 10 minute taxi ride to my hotel but I made sure I swiped a couple of sick bags from the hospital, made sure meds were taken on time and had a towel of soft jumper to put between boobs and seatbelt just incase sudden breaking etc I didn't end up needing vomit bags but I made sure I was prepared for it just incase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
