WORTH IT$7,700
I'm 36 years old with 3 children. 3 c-sections and two of them were 20 months apart. I was fine and could have lived with my stomach after my 2nd child but the 3rd did me in. No matter how much I work out it is gross and flabby.
I am 5'4" and 150 lbs which is still about 20 lbs over my normal weight so I'm super nervous that I might be doing this too early and should lose some more. I've seen some cases where people have lost weight after and it still looks great but I'm just nervous I'm still too fat to do it and for it to look good.

WE ARE SURGERY DAY SISTERS!!! WOOT! Can't wait to share in this journey with you! I am also alittle scared that I am jumping the gun with the weight issue. The problem is there is NEVER going to be another time for me to do the surgery. I have tried and tried to loose more weight and it just isn't happening.

OMG tomorrow morning at 6:30 am I check in for my surgery. I just said good-night to my 3 kids and I am a basketcase. For some reason saying good-night to them was so hard for me.

Good luck today! I am so excited for you! Make sure to follow your PS instructions. Oh...one thing that was not brought to my attention during the beginning of my healing process...YOU CANNOT SHAVE especially if your drains are placed in your mons area. Too easy to introduce infection. Also, ask about how to "milk" your drains to keep them from getting blocked. I look forward to seeing your updated pics!...:)
Like I said, being nervous is normal. Work on getting your house in order and everything set up for your procedure. Lots of pillows, water, reading material and good fruits and veggies. You must stay hydrated and eat fiber rich foods because the meds are going to back you up some. Also take a stool softner daily.
I look forward to helping you with your journey so if you have any questions, just ask! That is what we are here for...:)
If you need any questions answered or have worries and concerns...then make sure you ask you PS as well as leaning on us. We can give you our stories and help you through the process...:). Communication is so important between you and your PS. the only stupid question is the unasked question. So don't ever be afraid to ask any question....:)
