I am scheduled for surgery in one week. Very nervous and excited. I am 38 and have 3 children- 20,17,12. I haven't been happy with my abdomen since I was 17. I gained 60+ pounds with each pregnancy and managed to lose back to my ideal wt range each time. I am sick of seeing a stretch marked, hail damaged kangaroo pouch.
Surgery is scheduled for October 16th. I will post all pics post op.
Any valuable advice would be greatly appreciated.
FYI... I only took a week off.

I completely understand how you feel; I felt like my belly was some foreign object that made a home for itself on my body! If you are getting a full TT I hope you can take a little more time off if at all possible. I know everyone heals at their own rate, but seems a lot of people need 2 weeks to fully get back into it. I took 1 week off and worked from home the second and was fine (but I had more of a mini TT). Take care of yourself and best of luck!!

Lots of pillows, is what I tell everyone. You can put them everywhere to make you feel a little better. Let anyone and everyone wait on you. You need rest so much, so your body can heal. Take care.

I am scheduled for the 16th as well. My kids are 22,20 and 18. I have waited a long time to finally do this. I am having the same but with pain pump instead. Keep me posted as to how you are coming along !
