8 weeks post op

So I can't believe I'm 8 weeks the first 6 weeks were the thoughest because I couldn't carry my son and time seemed to drag on... But once I hit 6 week mark I was happy to finally carry him... I started to hit the gym and just start to go back to my routine... Now I can say my stomach isn't really soar any more I still feel a little tight still have numbness and my scar gets itchy at times...I'm still not comfortable doing abdominal work outs ... But I can do squats lounges jump run spinning class pretty much anything else except ab workouts... My scar is still really red iv been using silicon strips and bio oil..also my scar Dosnt feel so thick anymore it's starting to really soften up...I'm still a bit swollen and after workouts makes it a little bit worse but overall I'm loving my results love the new me no regrets :)

Everything going good!!!!

Today was my 3 week post op appt... Ps said everything is good I'm healing fast...I still have that rash on my belly button he said to use lightening cream to help with that he said it might take a while for it to go away and if not he will just laser it off.. So now he gave me the ok to use scar treatments for my scar and to massage it.. Also I can go to gym but only for walking or bicycle not much that I can do but something is better than nothing... He also said I can sleep in my side if I want to which I'm excited for because I always sleep on my side and having to sleep flat on my back is not very comfy...so now I can sneeze without it hurting so much I can twist better ..I'm more energetic not 100% but close...i can laugh without it hurting so much still does but very little..I wake up a bit soar in mornings on my upper abdomen but not to bad and my swelling still there but not as bad.. Also where my drains were there kind of sunken in I hope they go away because it dosnt look so nice anyone had the same thing? Hope this helps happy healing to ever one :)
