I am 29 and married with no children! I cannot have them without going through invetro. I had some complications and have scar tissue, and though I have not given birth to any crum snatchers;) my abdominal wall is horrible! My husband and I agreed in 2 or 3 we would start the process.
My stomach has always been a touchy spot for me and has affected my self esteem. As many have said, no matter what I do... It's still there. cannot fit into any true sizes because I suffer from "Dunlap syndrome" lol... My stomach "dunlapped" over! I am sick of wearing spanx and I am ready to be free! This is something I have wanted to do since my early 20's. Now it's time!! I am nervous and excited for my upcoming journey!
Everyone on realself is so open about their experiences and I plan to do the same! Of course I have had some people question why but for the most part I have a pretty good support system!
I am confident and have faith everything will go well and I will keep every one updated. I had a breast reduction in 2002 so I am pretty familiar with the healing process and Manage pain pretty well.
I cannot believe 2/28 has come so fast! I am 5...

I'm happy for you that you get to do this! Especially since you've been wanting it for so long. Does your plastic surgeon know that you're hoping to have a children in a few years? Pregnancy can undo a tummy tuck. Not that I want to discourage you, but I want you to have all the facts.
Please keep us posted on how your'e doing/feeling. I'm pretty sure you won't have a nervous breakdown ;) You'll do great!

I appreciate your concern. Thank you. Yes, my PS knows my plans. But you know when you plan something, the end result does not always go as planned, and sometimes you don't achieve your goal. That's why I have elected ro have an extended mini which only involves muscle tightening of the lower portion. PS told me there is a possibility I jay have to have minor revisions done but he has seen lots of women snap right back in to shape. I have done lots of research and even know a few that have conceived post tt's. To be honest it's a risk I am willing to take, we take all kinds of risks every day.
I am sure I won't have a breakdown lol if you hear from. Me again- you will know I haven't!! Lol
Make it a good day.
