I am 8 weeks post op and still have swelling, just takes time hun everyone is different hang in there xx
Thanks :) ... How can you tell its swelling cause i cant even tell anymore
The line down middle of tummy from muscle repair is more defined on waking and once swelling starts it is less visible. Some days is worse than others. And feels more swollen at top and bottom of tummy x x
Ooooooooohhhhh i cccc...
Im 6days po, and the swelling is really depressing me. Everyone said it takes time so im trying to be patient...
I dont even know whats swelling anymore or fat... I just hope my butt doesnt go down anymore
12 weeks and I still can't fit into a lot of my pre-op clothes. Most people don't have swelling as bad or as long as me, but obviously it can happen. People tell me, at 3 months out, that "it's still early"...so at your point it is VERY, VERY early.
12 weeks wow!!!' Thats a long. Time i dont think i have patience ... Did u jave to go buy new clothes

You are very swollen and have a lot of bruising. It's fluid. There is no way you actually gained 15 lbs, you are just retaining that much fluid. Drink lots of water and try bromelain for the swelling and arnica for the bruising.
Im doing both bromelein and arnica ... Dont know if it works but whatever ...
I had my tummy tuck a year ago. I had no pain, only when i coughed. I took no pain medications. i wish i would have done it years ago. i went from a size 12 to a size 8 in weeks. Good luck to all that are thinking of having this done. I am truly happy with my results. The scar is like a thin pencil line.
Oh thats great!!! Im glad everything went well ... I hope i drop sizes like that too :) im on a diet now anyway ... I just hope when i do my arms i dont swell more :)
