Tummy Tuck/Breast Aug to this Mom of 5

By Mom2five_Wife2one on 03 Sep 2012

Hi ladies, I am a mom of 5 and my last pregnancy was delivered via csection.I am planning to do a mommy Make over by the end of the month I hope! If I can find the right Doc :) With kids and things to do, there is enough distraction from intimacy that I am tired of my insecurity interfering with my enjoying it when it does happen. My husband is precious to me and does pursue me, but I get so distracted by my not wanting to present my body to him that I can't really be in the moment. SO, enough! He is supporting my desicion to have this done, but I do not want ANYONE else to know. SO, yall are my support group! :)) It's going to be a challenge to keep it quiet; especially with 5 kids! LOL! But, I am going to do my best! Nice to "meet" you all.

It's done! Now for the recovery road! So far not too bad at all! The dos said to have DH set an alarm to wake him ever 4 to give me meds & I think that makes a world of difference among all if the other great advice :)

I bought a raised toilet seat at walmart.com for 40$ & it's worth it!!!! I don't have to strain tummy muscles or risk popping a stitch.

Well I need to pee & I'm seeing double so time to sleep again

Thanks City mom! I am having BA and exTT. My implants will likely be 300cc. I just want to fill in the emptiness. I may have him add some lipo if it will make the TT look exceptionally better, but if not a big change, I wont.

Wrecking Ball, thank you for relating...it's great to have a friend in it!
When are your surgeries WB & Angie?

I'm not telling anyone either! My hubby and one friend are the only people that know! I'm telling my kids I'm getting a mommy problem fixed. My older kids will know about the tummy but not the boobs. You got yours booked soon!

Are you at all nervous about the burden on your husband? That is what has me most nervous.

No Im not nervous about burdening the hubs. He can take off any amount of time he wants. He'll do a better job than I do probably! Im actually looking forward to getting out of daily stuff for a little while even though it is not for fun. I do plan on having a menu and hopefully some freezer meals etc ready to make it all easier on the family. I guess I kind of figure that I have sacrificed everything Ive ever done as an adult for this family, so they can do me some caretaking for a couple weeks. My hubs is a good multitasker and can stay on top of things well.
