WORTH IT

Hello Everyone!

I'm a 33 years old mother of two. I have two boys ages 4 and 1. When Pregnant with my second child I developed an umbilical hernia. I decided after walking around with a pointy belly I wanted to get the hernia repaired. Found a wonderful doctor to do the hernia repair, and he informed me if I wanted he would also repair my abdominal muscles and Tuck my stomach for almost half the price, since my insurance was covering the hospital cost and general sedations. I have never in my life had a flat stomach. I have always wanted one and now my dream is coming true. I'm really looking forward to this procedure. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I'm just hoping see the results I’m looking for. Pray for me!

I will post an update next Monday on how I'm feeling as the time gets closer.

I've been checking out other peoples situation. I have checked out the Not worth it post,and they are actually scaring me. I'am praying to GOD! That my doctor doesnt place a high incision. I pray he make sure to make it as low as possible. I will freak!!!!

Should I be checking out all the negative side of this surgery? Peobably not! But I guess I want to know the good and the bad.

Please God! Guide the surgeons every move. (Aman)

Welcome. I am from GA also. I am 6 weeks post op. You will do great with surgery and feel so much better about yourself! I will be praying for a smooth surgery and speedy recovery!!

Just PLEASE make sure they are a board certified plastic surgeon! If they are, then everything should go smoothly! MOST of the people who is in the "not worth it" is because they picked cosmetic surgeons, not board certified plastic surgeons.

Best Wishes! My TT is scheduled for Oct 6th also in Ga. I know what you are talking about. Really looking forward to it but still nervous. I am having a TT w/MR and a BL. Just not sure about recovery. After reading other reviews I'm really trying to prepare myself for the worse then maybe it won't be as bad!!haha But the reviews are wonderful on here really gave me alot of questions I didn't think about asking. Any who I will be checking back to see how you are coming along during Post op..

Wow,we are getting TT @ the sametime. It will be awesome to have someone to compare notes and recovery. Thanks for your moment! Hopefully we can help each other out. I'll be your support and you be mine. I'm so excited and nervous at the sametime. I think the nervousness comes not knowing the outcome of the surgery. I'm really hoping for a very low incision. I think I'm most nervous about that.

Yes that sounds great!! I haven't posted pics yet but will as soon as I can get up enough nerve to. Yea I know what you mean about the incision and outcome. I was scheduled for Sept. originally but got nervous and cancelled two days d-day. This time I'm nervous but a different nervous. I found this web site and it helped tremendously! I learned alot and it gave me alot of questions I hadn't thought of before. Now I am ready!!!
