But I know this is way more invasive than a c-section.... I "plan" on being mobile as much as possible... Remember... I am a nurse... Lol... But then again... I hate taking pain meds because of drug testing.... more

“My Experience with TT Surgery Has...”

I think the pros certainly out way the cons with women who simply have extreme excess skin. The only con I can think of is simply going thru a major surgery and dealing with being somewhat uncomfortable. My motivation was to remove the excess skin that I deal with daily in my belly. It's just 'always there'!! Because of this excess, I have to wear larger pant sizes, so then the pant may fit... more
