March Tummy Tuckers UNITE!!

By 3boys 1princess on 17 Feb 2011

I know there were a few of us on another discussion that said we should start a march thread. If this isn't the place to do that sorry. Just thought we should share our concerns, joys and whatnot together as we share in this journey in MARCH!

Hi Dreamarie,

Hang in there!

Hey Mommy77,
I am doing really well! Your kids are the same age as mine and I also have a 3 1/2 year old boy. It has been an adjustment for my kids, but they are doing well.

I am 10 days post-op and feel pretty good. All my drains are out now (I also had a breast reduction) and feel so much better. The first week was hard, but I feel better and better every day. I am SOOOOO glad I did this as I feel like my outsides now match how I feel on the inside.

Good luck to you and your surgery. You are not that far away! So excited for you!

I am having my surgery on the 29th! Good Luck to you! I am having a tt, breast lift with implants

Hi Happy135,
I just joined Realself....I had my TT w/inner thigh lipo on March 29th also. How are you doing so far? I'm doing ok. The brusing from the lipo on my thighs is worst than the TT incision. I can't wait until I can stand up straight. I didn't have much pain afterwards and I was up and about on Wednesday. I drove myself to my postop visit on Friday and everyone was so amazed. All-in-all everything is going great and I feel good, I just want to stand up straight.

Hope all is well with you and everyone else.

Happy135 4 Apr 2011

Hi mdterry... Actually I'm not doing too bad my implants don't bother me Pain wise much but my stomach keeps swelling and it's more of a discomfort than a pain with my tt. I have been off my pain meds since day 4. I'm standing up straight and have been since day 4 so that's something I'm proud of. My biggest pain is that I'm almost a week po and I'm still draining alot :( I have a post op visit tomm morning and was hoping to get both drains taken out. I
Thinking about taking vitamins and see if that will help with my healing. I took 3 weeks off from work and I hope I'm ready to go back when I have to.

Just be prepared that when you do have all of your drains finally removed (it's TOTALLY liberating! LOL!), you will swell a good bit!! I had a lot of swelling at my pubic mound and up to my incision - it was terrible and very puffy but has subsided a good bit. By the end of the day though, that's where I'll swell. Tomorrow marks 5 weeks post op for me, so good luck!

Gastonia109 23 Feb 2011

I Feel Fabulous! 24 Feb 2011

As of tomorrow, 4 DAYS AWAY! How is everyone feeling? I am scared, excited, ecstatic, ready for it to be OVER! Wow, so many emotions! They are definitely running high! Any advice for us from those of you who have been a few days before? Any last minute things we should know? Thanks so much! Take Care!
