I'm not sure why my screen name isn't showing but it's 3gmom. Even though that reading some of these stories are concerning to me, I am still excited at the possibility of having a shaped tummy! These stories are scary, inspirational and exciting and I am so grateful for them! I was on a board while I was pregnant 3 years ago and it was so helpful to me. I was a planned c-sect. After reading the boards I felt that I had read plenty of experiences to get me as mentally prepared as possible! My c-sect was a breeze and I had very little discomfort. I'm hoping that this will be similar. I have had 6-7 various surgeries in my 34 years so while surgery and all that it entails isn't pleasant, I'm hopeful that I can do this one too :-/

HI Amy, how did it all go for you? My TT was Aug. 5th. I would love to know more about you experience. I'm doing fabulous, I have concerns but mostly I am so excited I did this. I also had a reduction and lift.

Hi, I'm August 11 - counting down the days.... I've had 3 c-sections already and now have to have a hysterectomy so am getting a TT at the same time - I'm hoping this won't be too different from my previous surgery experiences. I seemed to handle and recover from them ok. Good luck to all us August TTs!!

Hi there! I'm scheduled for a TT and a BL with augmentation on Aug 5th. I can't believe how nervous I am already. My PS recommended this site and I am thrilled. The stories and advice have really given me some great insight so far. Our time is coming soon!!! Good luck everyone.

Hi holidaymom I am having a BL and TT same day as you : ) I am so nervous, and scared and guilty and excited. Good luck to you

I had the same thing on the same date! What are you feeling as of now? I'm doing great, a little guilty spending time in bed still. Mornings I do a lot of my regular routine. It feels good to be "back in service" Then a lot of the afternoon is spent in bed. Going downstairs here and there to help with my 3 yr. old and show support to my husband and 21 yr old, who have unbelievable from day one.

Hello I am new here. I just booked my TT,Breast lift with implants and some flanking for Aug 3! I am so excitied!~ I have wanted to do this for yrs and just never got up the nerve. Finally found a doctor I feel good about. I am 35 with 3 kids in pretty good shape, if you minus the belly from having a c-section and well three kids, so I am hoping for awesome results.

August 1 here! Not scared yet, we'll see once it gets closer! I'm not going under general anesthesia so I'm much less afraid! :) Bring it on, I'm so ready for this!!

Hey... I'm August 26th. 1,524 hours and counting. Give or take a few minutes.

I am so ready to get the surgery. I haven't received my packet yet, just the downpayment receipt. I've been exercising so my weight can be where it needs to be. I AM READY!
Soccermama123 24 Jun 2011
Never thought about figuring out the hours and seconds good idea! :) I have been running more, and doing insanity to try to get in better shape, so my recovery is quicker, hoping it will work. Anyone changing there eating habits and if so what are you doing differently? I am so happy I found this website, I have become obbessed with looking at the before and after photos, and can not wait to post my before photos, but even more excitied for the after! hurry up aug 3!
Ariel99 14 Jul 2011
I am trying to eat healthier and also doing Insanity most days of the week. I know i have to abstain from alcohol 2 weeks before surgery and they gave me vitamins to take pre-op 2 weeks. I also started a multivitamin.

August 10th here!! I've lost 70 pounds in the last year and a half so I'm getting a TT, BL, and BA. I'm SOOO nervous!!! And excited!! :)
Soccermama123 24 Jun 2011
That's awesome regarding your weight lost! I can hardly wait for August!
liberated0714 24 Jun 2011

I'm August the 4th and super nervous. Getting a tummy tuck with breast implants. I'm on the net every minute i get researching. The wait is painful.
Soccermama123 26 Jun 2011
I agree the wait is painful! But I keep focusing on how great my new body is going to be!

I'm getting a TT and BA on August 5th. It still doesn't feel real yet...I am addicted to this website and so thankful for it! Good luck everyone :)
holidaymom 29 Jun 2011
We have the same surgery date Aug 5th! I'm also addicted to this site, although I wish I could be on it even more. I have 4 boys ages 18, 17, 15 & 12 so they keep me running for sure! I'm so excited to think about my soon smaller tummy. It is weird though the "unknown" of what to expect for my results. I'm most scared of the recovery. I'm pretty active & being down for so long scares me. I hope I can handle the pain & not go stir crazy. I look forward to hearing about everyones' experiences.
Soccermama123 27 Jun 2011
So how is everyone feeling? I can hardly wait, hoping to connect with people who are soon to be tucked~
MumOf3 27 Jun 2011
I'm definitely excited but am getting a bit more nervous now although I think it's mainly the general anesthetic that freaks me out the most - I don't know why as I've been put under 3 times before - but for some reason that's my main concern, not the results or the recovery!! Although I did read something on the internet the other day which put it all into perspective; " without general anesthetic, the majority of today's medical procedures would be impossible" - so true!! The other day I was getting changed and my two year old came up and patted my stomach and said "look at your big belly mummy" so alongside all my nerves/fears/excitement, I can't wait for my new tummy!!
liberated0714 27 Jun 2011
I'm exactly the opposite of you MumOf3. LOL. I'm more nervous about my results and not really about being put under. It's all I think about. And I'm doing my best not to talk about it 24/7. I'm sure my friends and family are getting SICK of talking about it. LOL....

I just wish I could fast forward the next month!!
