still swollen 10 weeks po

By nanny938 on 16 Jan 2013

So, here I am, swollen again. I am getting so depressed that I am still not flat. Yes I look better than before my tt, but not where I want to be. I have just started walking on my treadmill, only 15 minutes, and afterward o get so swollen.

I am at 3 months and swelling is getting much better! Hang in there. Get some exercise and keep wearing your binder. It helps!

Hi there - I am 8 1/2 weeks po and I am feeling your frustration. I know I am not as far as you but I dont think any of us were prepared mentally for this. Even when we gave birth to our children we were up and about, but this is the first time I have felt completely helpless with what my body is doing. All I do know is that the people on this forum have made me feel that I am not alone in feeling like this. It WILL end. Keep going.....

This process takes time so hang on..I know this is very frustrating but there is no way to rush this recovery.  

Deep breath and chin up:)
