I have scheduled my tummy tuck for sept 28 and I am so scared. I keep thinking the worst. My husband is very supportive and is behind me with what ever decision I make. I have two kids age 6 and 2 and I want to make sure I heal okay and can get back to being a fun mom. I also work full time and I need to be able to return to work in about two weeks so I am very nervous and not sure if I can be back to work in set time. I also can't seem to find much review on my doctor. Aside from the time I saw him in the news doing free work on a young burned patient and since that time I think he is perfect...if he can put that little girl back together..give her a second chance to live normal he is perfect for giving me a second chance to live without the jelly belly. I met him and he is just great and very nice . However, now as the time is getting close I am getting cold feet and myself.

IT'S TIME! Yes it is. Trust me you will be ok darling! I was so nervous the day before my surgery I went into work (on my day off) and tried to get my co workers to talk me out of it. And now here I am going on 1 week post opt tomorrow and I am just fine. Inbox me if you need to chat ok.

Thank you so much for responding. I need a positive push. I am just like you looking for someone to talk me out of it but everyone I talked to is so for it and telling me to do it so I can be happy.

I am in NY as well. I had a consult with your Dr. I was strongly considering going with him as well. I went with a guy in the city that my girlfriend used. Othetwise I would had used him. You will be fine.

Put my paper in at work to take three weeks. Keeping my fingers cross that they don't give me a hard time. Now trying to see if I can get help with my kids for the day of the surgery. I asked my sister but she turned me down with a lame excuse. It's so hurtful that when she had her Lipo I was there for her, right by her side. She does not have kids, I do and I remember how hard it was for me to find help with the kids so I can be there for her but she is being such an ingrate specially when I am so nervous and need her support. I am so hurt, i somehow expected more understanding from her but very surprised at her cold shoulder attitude...anyway life goes on...i am keeping my chin up and am looking forward to my surgery and praying to God for help and to let everything work out just perfect.

As the days are getting closer...I feel that I am hooked on this site. I check it all the time and ready every post. It makes me feel so much better. It's like my drug and I need a fix when I am nervous , feel alone, or down.

Working at it. I may ask my friend but need to come up with a good reason since I did not tell anyone what I am doing.
