Hi Tifrose519. I was wondering if you had your boobs done by Dr. Leigh, too? He's my Dr. Would love any insight you have on him. Your stomach looks fantastic!

Thanks for posting your pics. I have a question. Hoe tight did your compression pants in the pic fit?

I have bought mine pre op (TTon 1 dec) & they fit very tight now & I was wondering if I should buy a bigger size so that they are looser? I know its a hard question but I am so used to wearing tight clothes that I don't know if compression=tight as I know it.

i don't know, i think you should be fine. i got mine free from the surgeon. i didn't choose a size, they just gave me a medium and it seemed to work fine. sorry i am not much help on that one!

My tummy looked just like yours prior to my TT on September 24th (9weeks out). Just wondering do you have stretch marks now below your belly button? It is hard to tell from your pix, btw your tummy looks great!! I am asking bc I have them and was a bit disappointed my ps couldn't cut those out but he said I would have been pulled too tight had he done that and my skin was too thin for that.

If you do, you can't tell at all! I would be ecstatic about your results! GOOD FOR YOU!
Loved your review. Very helpful! Thanks for sharing your experience.
How was recovering with the kids? I have 4 kids, my youngest will be 3 at the time of surgery, oldest will be 9. I am just so worried about having to pick one up or do something around the house and ruin everything!
Thanks for any input!

thank you! do you have someone to help you out? my family was very helpful when i needed them for the first few weeks. i was up and cleaning the house in less than 2 weeks i think (still couldn't stand up straight but i am a clean freak so i had to get things done haha). i didn't lift my kids at all for about 2 weeks because i didn't want to ruin anything. just take it as easy as you can! you will be so happy with the results! good luck!

My husband is going to be here to help and I am trying to recruit my mom, however, she isn't really on board with it as of yet! :( I am glad to hear that 2 weeks is all it took for you to start to get back into the swing of things, for some reason I had it in my mind it would be much longer!
Thanks for the fast reply! Every little bit of input helps me calm my nerves!
