I am 42 and a mother of 2 beautiful boys (6,11)who were delivered by C-section. After the second one, my abdomen remained as if I was 3 months pregnant. I have always had issues about my tummy since I was a little girl, but it got worse after my pregnancies. I am not fat at all, but even though I have a good diet and exercise about 2 times/week, my tummy looks awful!!!

I will have TT this Monday, August 15. I am a little bit afraid because I have never had general anesthesia before. If everything goes fine, I know it will worth it.

How did it go? You're on the other side of your surgery now and I hope you're healing well! Please let us know!

I am home already, but the pain in the areas of liposuction is incredible!!! It is a combination of pain and numbness. My drainages are draining about 60 cc each. My surgeon will see me again on Friday. At some point, I had mixed feelings and asked myself why did I get into this? However, I hope that at the end it was worth it. I will post some photos later. Thanks for your support!!!!

I am already 3 days post-op and I am feeling a little bit better every day. I am very sore in liposuction areas,but have no pain at the scar of the abdominoplasty. However, I have been having strange dreams at night after the surgery. Different things, but very vivid. Is that an effect of the anesthesia or is it just the stress related to the procedure in general? Can anyone comment about this? Thanks!!!

I am 6 days post-op and still sore at the areas of lipo. However, pain have been getting better every day. I feel very swollen, but I know it's normal. I am supposed to be out of my drainages tomorrow. Vivid dreams have already gone. I am sleeping half of the night in my bed with a wedge- shaped pillow and the other half in a chair.I am not used to sleep on my back and I get pain in my neck in the mornings. I am very happy with my decision of having a TT.I know that the healing process will be slow and I am ready for that. I am not able to walk straigth yet and I am having low back pain, just part of the process!!!
