I am looking for recommendations for supplies and items that people wish they had for reduction/mastectomy recovery. I am having reduction and lift in 6 weeks and prophylactic mastectomy in the winter. I would like to get supplies ahead of time and just have a boobie survival tote since I am going to have several surgeries (I am also doing a fat graft after implant swap). I know i need a wedge, button tops/pj's and slip ons. I would really appreciate any other advice this community has. Thank you all so much in advance. This community has been very helpful in my mental preparation for this journey already!

I had the meeting with plastic surgery today. I am very large busted (34I). They recommend a reduction and lift before the mastectomy and reconstruction. As we were discussing size after reconstruction here suggested a C cup and i panicked. I have been very large chested my whole life. I am worried I will have really bad body dysmorphia of I go way smaller. I explained that to him and we kind of agreed DD could be done. I liked him and his points were for healing, longevity and the best outcome. I obviously want those same things. I know it sounds very vain. Is there anyone who had a similar size reduction that could talk me through this? Anyone with DD that could tell me how that compares to natural beasts? I guess i an trying to get my head wrapped around this reality. Again, I am sorry Iknow this sounds super vain, I haven't been a DD since 8th grade. TIA
