WORTH IT$14,000

I have 4 children that ages range from 15 to 2. I breastfed each one of them and had 3
C-sections. Having my children have really taken a toll on my breasts and tummy. While I am thankful and blessed to have my children, I cannot stop dreaming of of having my figure back. I am tired of always being asked if I am pregnant. I have lost all the weight from my last child but still have this bulging belly. I have turned to Dr. Turkeltaub for help. I am so very nervous about having the mommy makeover procedure done but I am also so very excited for the results.

Just think of it as body reconstruction! Good for you for doing this for yourself! When is your surgery scheduled for?

Hi Heather6258!! I'm scheduled for the 23rd as well. Do you have all of your supplies for your recovery? We will be recovering together! Are you freaking out like I am?

Hi Jade007...yes I am freaking out! I have everything I need for my recovery except, I am thinking about getting a couple more pillows to help prop me up in bed. I remember from my C-sections how hard it was getting out of bed. Are you having the mommy makeover done as well?

Only a few more days Heather!

Jade007....Yes, only a few more days! Okay, so I asked a silly question in my previous comment...you wouldn't be posting comments on this page if you weren't having a mommy makeover...lol...where are you having it done?
July 21, 2012
I'm getting it done in Encinitas, CA. Staying overnight. I just want my recovery to start already! I'm a side sleeper, so I am wondering how I'm going to get any rest sleeping on my back propped up! Plus It's so hot now and that makes it even harder to get comfortable.

I am also staying one night in a surgical center in Scottdale, AZ. I know exactly what you are saying. I am a side sleeper as well. ugh...but it will all be worth it in the end. That's what I keep telling myself.

I already have a hard time falling asleep at night, so I can imagine propped up sleeping on my back! Plus it being summer doesn't help. I guess I have to just keep thinking about the final outcome. I'm the type of person that if my feet even gets hot, I'm awake and can't sleep! I guess I'll be up on this site all night recovering! Do you work? If so, how long will you be out of work for?

It has been almost 3 weeks since my surgery and I feel great! I am standing up straighter now. The swelling is going down and I only have 1 drainage tube left in. That will come out this week for sure. So far I am very happy and I cannot wait for all the swelling to go down. It was totally worth it!!!
