Even though I'm in a lot of pain, I'm so happy I did the tummy tuck. I can't wait for the swelling to go down so I can truly see the results. I am 38 yrs old mother of 4 beautiful children. I had my tummy tuck June 15th. I have been looking forward to this surgery since I had my last child....and she is turning 7 next month. I can't wait to feel sexy again. My husband tells me I'm beautiful but I am doing this for myself. I wish everyone else lots of luck on their surgery and recovery :)

It's day 5 post op and I'm not taking pain pills. I'm dealing with the pain and discomfort. I can't wait to get the drain removed on Saturday.

Oh girl you look wonderful!  Your waist is tiny!!   

Hang in there and go slow for a while.  Let your body heal properly and be patient.  The swelling takes a while to go down but that is all a part of this process.  

Keep the posts coming and let me know how you are doing each day.

Yes I'm still in pain but I've been depressed about my stretch marks and round shape for years. I can'[t believe I finally decided to get a tummy tuck with lipo and hernia repair. I'm really happy with the results but OMG THE PAINNNNNN!!! I'm so glad I read this forum prior to surgery because it gave me a realistic view of what to expect.

First week was really rough...they finally removed the drain today...day 7. I probably have to go back to in a few days...wish I could stay home longer.

Hi. I had my surgery on the 19th and because my Dr. Uses the pain pump I'm not in any pain just sore. Everyday gets better. As long as you get up and walk a little every 2 hours you should be ok. The walking really helps with the stiffness. Happy Healing!!!! You look great!!!!
