I have 12 year old twins that stretched my skin beyond repair!! Then had two more single pregnancies on top of that. I have wanted a tt for 12 years but finally got the nerve to book it. I'm very excited, but also very scared. My youngest will be 6 months old when I have the procedure and he is my main focus. I hope I don't have unrealistic expectations as far as recovery goes. I'm hoping to feel pretty good by week two. I love this forum because it is full of information. Everyone's experience is so different, but sooo helpful to ease my nerves.

I'm 3 days po and I must say it is going better than I expected. The first 2 days were horrible because of the anesthesia fog I was in. Today I feel much better. In definitely more awake and can move around a little more. In not that hunched over and I love the feeling of a new flat tummy. I can't wait to heal and wear clothes that I could never wear before!! Good luck to everyone.

Today is 1 week post op and I feel great! I'm almost 100%upright and my drains come out tomorrow. I actually managed to stay awake all day yesterday! Personally, I think the worst part of this procedure was the anesthesia coma I was in the first two days. I just couldn't stay awake. The pain is definitely tolerable. If you have had a csection it is similar in the amount of pain however the pain is surprisingly not at the incision. It is in the abs. I'm so excited when I look in the mirror. I used to buy Gap curvy jeans. Now I can get the low rise I used to get when I was 24! I lost 4 lbs and am still swollen. I'm sure I will be back in a size 2 in no time. Can't wait. This was the best thing I've done for myself besides getting married and having kids!:)
