FINALLY got my second drained removed today........I thought it was going to be worse than what it was but the second tube was pretty short. I thought that was crazy because it was the one that was collecting all of the fluid....oh well. Got my next appointment on Monday and I start with the massages to get some of this hardness in my tummy. Still a little numb and have some swelling but other than that all is good :). Haven't tried to put on any of my clothes yet just been walking around with my vs sweats..... Good thing I have a couple is pair. Well post more pics after my next appt.

Awesome Plastic Surgeon. His staff were so helpful all the way up until time and date of surgery. They also called and checked to ensure I was taking my pills. I would recommend him to anyone in the Charlotte area and behind. I went In very nervous and they made me feel so much better. I gonna go to him when I do my breast.

You are looking great! Yay for getting the second drain out. Feels so good! Your going to love the massages. I have my 4th massage tomorrow, going 2x's per week. Feels great, provides relief (not a soothing great). It is invigorating.

Great news on the drain. Everybody says they are the biggest pain, but I think it's gotta be better than no drains (fluid build up etc). Take care and Happy New Year!

So went to my ps yesterday and only got one drain out :(. He did tell me that if I drain less the 30 ccs by Monday I can get the other one taken out....so that was a plus. When the nurse took out that tube.....OMG.....my husband said that he seen it come from the top of my stomach. I couldn't do anything but sit there with my mouth open. Wasn't that bad but felt really weird. So ladies don't be scared :/. Any who he said I was looking good to be a week post op and have some swelling at the bottom of my tummy. Until next time!!!!!!!!
