Boobs during surgery



Recommended Posts

Hehehe I love it! So I am a surgical nurse and you will notice that when you lie flat on the bed our breast will kinda roll out instead of down, and the highest incision they would make for an abdominal surgery would still have to be under the rib cage. Also the drapes help consolidate the area. I have not had to tape anyones breasts back yet (altough this is probaby what we would do) but there is a first time for everything I suppose!

Ladies, I'd also like to offer my services to those pesky breasts out of your surgeons way.

Speaking of catheters ....when I woke up and took my first trip to the restroom I was bleeding...so I called my nurse and told her that my catheter was causing me to bleed...her response: "you didn't have a catheter placed!" lol the bleeding was actually caused from the incision above my belly button..it hade slight reopened and the blood kinds leaked down to my lady parts lol!!!! Moral of story(if there is one lol) Not all surgeons require catheters

I didn't have a catheter until after surgery . I only got one because all the anti nausea meds and anaesthesia made my bladder lazy and I could not go for hours.

I could not stop laughing. Why is it that the valid serious questions can be the funniest? I would have never even thought about it but now that you say it, despite it being funny, it is a fact.

What do they do to keep our boobs out of the way?

Because i am sorry but us big girls got some "big girls" lol...

Maybe I will ask my doc when I go in for surgery next month..lol
