Newbie.. TT consult in two days... excited, nervous!!
By TinaP on 16 Nov 2010
I'm 41 and have had 3 C-sections. I gained approx 52lbs with first pregnancy and my tummy has never been the same. My youngest is now a high school senior and a whole new chapter is about to start..empty nester/hitting 40s/25th wedding anniv. and starting TT journey.. consult the 18th and nervous!
That is all very exciting! How did the consult go? And are you going to have more than one? I recommend meeting with at least three doctors. Even if you love the very first one you meet with keep looking. You need something to compare it to.
Tina, continue with the consults. I have read that most people who have a mini tummy tuck are not happy with the results in the long run.
Do two or three more consults and just take it a day at a time. I personally would not want the vertical scar.
I bet! I would be, too. If you'd like, you can post a review in our Tummy Tuck community even though you haven't had the surgery yet. I'm encouraging women to start sharing their stories during their decision making process. I think it makes us a more close-knit group.
If you're interested in doing that, go here.
That is SO exciting. It's finally time for you! Where are you located? How are you feeling as you're about to embark on this journey?
