I am 7wks post op I feel pretty good but I am very swollen . Even my boobs and butt are swollen. I had a po visit yesterday with my PS, so now I have to go and get a ultra sound. Wow, I tried to do everything right pre-op because I wanted to be at my best after surgery and I guess it didn't work...lol. I'm not sad or unhappy with all of the things that have been going on , just rolling with the punches, but I'll be glad to get to the part when my stomach is flat!!!. And yes I would do it again, even though everything that you could think of has happened to me, I'm still happy.

I feel your pain, I am sorry it has been so rough for you. I am in a similar situation, I am swollen, and look 6 months prego, ugh! My belly looks much better than before my surgery, but I am not flat, and thats all I ever wanted. I am hearing it takes time, but I see other women on this site, and they R flat. It gets so frustrating. From the bottom of my heart, I hope you achieve what you are looking for.

Hi Nanny938, try not to let it get you down, I know you want a flat stomach, but it will come in time. We knew from the start that it can take as much as a year or more for us to start seeing results, and with our health conditions it will probably take even longer. Look at it on the bright side, our tummy's are better looking swollen than they were before our tummy tucks...lol Keep me posted on your progress, and keep your head up, you'll get there : )

Hello everyone, this is my first post since my tt 10 days ago.....well where do I began . I arrived at the hospital about 6am. and was ready for surgery at about 9:30am . After surgery my ps wanted me to stay overnight for observation, and it's a good thing. First of all I couldn't pee nor did I have the urge to go, then my b/p dropped really low, like 74/42, and then I had to get a blood transfusion, so what should have been a same day surgery turned into me staying in the hospital for 4 days. I'm home now resting and as it turned out I have plenty of help, my daughter, niece and mother all came down from the bay area to see about me....I have a truly wonderful family : ) . I am very swollen and I couldn't take that damm compression garment any longer so I haven't been wearing it. I am sooooooooo sore, my vajayjay looks like a basketball that has been stapled to a beach ball (my tummy)...lol. It hurts with the slightest touch. I am taking cipro antibiotics and can't take them with iron or vitamins so I have to wait 2 more days until I finish with the cipro. I also have arnica, but I think that I will wait for that also. Overall I am very happy with my tt, I think that once all of the pain and swelling goes away I will be one hot mamma....lol. I will post pics when I am up to taking some, right now the pain is just too bad...ttyl.

Thank you applejelley, I had a few complications, but I'm getting better everyday. I go Tuesday to see my PS, I still have my drains and stapples in, hopefully they will come out then.

Oh wow... I'm sorry to hear all those unforeseen circumstances arose and glad that you are ok. I hope you feel better soon. Take care and post when you can. Don't forget you will be one hot mama when all is said and done!
