So I am mother of 4 by c-section. Ive been dreaming of having TT since my first child. Well a few weeks ago I had my first visit with the dr and booked my tt today. Once it was booked I freaked out and cancel the appt. I dont understand why am I so scared and having a panic attack with something that I so want. Any one else have that fear and what did they do to overcome it.

I only had one child, Vaginal Birth, and as a nurse I know what a C-section can do to a woman let alone childbearing.
It is perfectly Normal to freak out, panic and be scared.
Read through most everyones reviews and you will find that we were all nervous, anxious, and scared.
Just breath. Make the appointment because you deserve to feel good about yourself, and do something for yourself.. You will not regret it.. I promise.
It is very worth it... Let us know if you reschedule,,,, Also make sure you read all the posts. They do help a tremendous amount.
Oh yes all normal. It is several things that cause this panic. #1 it is elective surgery, #2 you are doing something for yourself, #3 motherly guilt, #4 the unknown.
We have all been in the freak out mode but you will get through this. Try not to think too much about it or you will run like a scared little girl. Been there...
So you pick up that phone, re-schedule, and stick with all of us on the site. We will help you through.
It is the best thing I have ever done for myself and I would do it all over again if necessary. Love my results and my new body. Do it for yourself and be happy because you deserve it.
You really should be at a pretty stable weight before and after surgery. They tell you that you should be about 15 pounds within your ideal weight before surgery. And then should try to stay there after.
I have read that if you flex up and down withing 5-10 pounds that you should be fine. But if you plan to drop a large amount of weight after you; run the risk of ending up with extra skin again.
