Can't believe I only have a week until I go in for...
Can't believe I only have a week until I go in for my TT with Lipo! I'm 30 with two kiddos (3 and 5) and a very supportive husband. I met with my PS a few weeks ago and felt very comfortable. I like his nurses and staff alot too. They are all really sweet. Anyway, I've just been keeping myself busy with work and my kiddos and getting everything ready for my surgery day. My husband and I are going to have to spend the night in a hotel the night of surgery to stay close to the PS (plus we have a post-op the next day) because we leave 1.5 hours away from the surgeon. If any of you have had similar experiences and have any helpful tips on things I may want to bring to the hotel, that would be great.
The staff at the PS office told me to make sure to bring my own towels and things so that I didn't get blood all over the hotel's stuff. I'm planning on having someone with me for the first 3 days, and after that my husband will go back to work, so I will be at home by myself. He'll come check on me at lunch time (he works about 10 min away from where we live), so I think I'll be fine. I've taken 15 days off from work...really hoping that's enough time. I'm an esthetician, so I don't do any heavy lifting, but my job is pretty active.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with my body. After my second pregnancy my stomach just didn't bounce back. I have a pouch of loose fat and skin under my panty line that I hate. Most people probably don't notice it, but I see it all the time. It's especially bad when I sit down. I'm really looking forward to it being gone.
I had both my children naturally (with no epidural) so I'm hoping that I can handle the pain. Based off of reading reviews on here it really does seem like it varies so much from person to person, so we'll see.

So I'm beginning to get a little frustrated with...
So I'm beginning to get a little frustrated with PS office. I had bloodwork done here in my hometown last week. I've called 3 times this week to see if they had received my results from the lab yet, and no one called me back. This was over a period of three days, so it wasn't like I was being a complete psycho. My surgery is less than 4 days away, so you'd think that this would be a more of a priority. Called back again today and asked if they had them and got another big fat no. So I called the lab directly and they said they had been completed. Call the PS back again to tell the nurse that the labs were done (thinking she could call and get them) and she tells me that she hadn't checked the fax machine yet today (this was at 4:00pm) and they they were there the whole time. So at least I can quit worrying about that, everything came back fine. Now during all this mess, I've been leaving messages with the PS receptionist. When I called and told her my name and scheduled surgery date/time, she told me that she didn't have me at 7am, she had me at 10am. Nice. Well when I finally spoke to the nurse today, she told me my surgery time was 12:45pm. When I expressed frustration that the time kept changing, she said "Oh don't worry - this happens all the time. They'll call you Friday and tell you what your actual surgery time will be. It could change again." That's fabulous. I live an hour and a half away and have two children that I have to make arrangements for. If they turn around and tell me that I have to be there at 7am on Monday again, I might go crazy.
Feeling better everyday! The night after surgery...
Feeling better everyday! The night after surgery was the worst. My pain medicine and pain pump didn't seem to help. My husband brought a king size mattress cover which turned out to be perfect because my lipo incisions were draining like crazy. Between the mattress pad, the puppy pads and our towels from home we were really prepared for the hotel.
The next day was post op day 1 and I had my first post op visit with a nurse. She was great. My pain pump tubes went into my sternum between my boobs. There was a lot of blood under the tape they used, so she took the tape off, cleaned it up and put a new one on. We scheduled my next post op visit for next Monday which will be post op day 7. I'm sure I will get to be rid of one of these drains at that appointment, but I'm hoping they will take them both out. They are getting emptied 3-4 times per day with less than 30 from each drain everytime.
Amazed at how much better the pain gets hour by hour and day by day. I'm able to get on and off the couch by myself, which is awesome. My lipo stitches on my back are starting to get itchy.

I had several people recommend this PS to me. I also read about them in New Beauty and spent a good amount of time browsing their website and looking at photos. I was impressed with their work.
