I am not nervous at all, just very very excited! I will update again after the operation. I am also doing a BA which I am also very excited about. From A to full C.
I have done all my pre-op shopping and tonight I will be packing by hospital bag. I have to stay over for 2 nights.
My mom is coming to stay with me for 2 weeks to help with my little one (4 years) and the older two will be able to help me (16 and 13).

Morning all. I am at the office and cant wait for this day to go by. Tonight I will pack my overnight bag and take the before pics. This time tomorrow morning I should be in theater.
I looked at some before and after pics again last night and really really hope that my results will also be as good.
I am not scared at all. Just very very excited. I am worried that I will be disappointed though, cause everytime when I am this excited about something, it goes wrong. So for now I am couping my excitement a bit.
I am worried about the pain, what people may say, what I will look like...but never thought about not doing it anymore.
I will come and update again.

OMW!! What a difference between day 2 and 3. Felt like new person. Most painfull thing was the pressure on my breast due BA. Meds really doing their job well.
I even got up an looked for some movies to watch on my drive.
Still no appetite and nausius. Taking it bitr by bite :-). Dosing in and out of sleep the whole day so not completely rested nor tired.
The drains are currently the worts to deal with.
I can literraly feel how I'am getting better and stronger by the hour.
Thank you so much for all the kind words and wishes. I check in every now and again.
It means the world to me.
Love,

Hi lulu :). Congratulations on your procedure! I had my TT 13 wks ago. But I had a BR with mine :). I was a dd and now a C. Hope you are resting and comfortable. Pls keep us updated.

i think a good c cup would be perfect ! i had a tummy tuck 6 weeks ago, since your at 13 weeks Ana313, can you tell us, has all the swelling stopped, does it get better each week, anything we need to know ? thanks Kathy

Hi there. I still have my swell days. I had Chinese food yesterday. The sodium puffed me up bad. If I over do with walking or cleaning I swell a little too. I'm still wearing my compression garment with legs...doctors orders. My swelling is mainly below my bb and the hip and thigh area. I think I saw the swelling really go down significantly around week 7. My ps said 6 months for the swelling to all go away. 1/2 way there :). Hang in there ladies.
June 26, 2012
really ana313, i did hear that but i guess was hoping not true, someone said you can swell up to a year, so at 13 weeks you wear your compression garmet all the time ? thanks for your response.

Hi Kathy. During the week i wear it all day until I go to bed. On the weekends it depends on what activity I'm doing and how my belly looks. I'm wearing spanx assets right now. It's pretty comfy.
June 26, 2012
WELL BASICALLY WHAT I AM DOING, JUST TAKE OFF TO TAKE A BREAK, WASH ONE OR THE OTHER, I AM ALLOWED TO SWIM BUT HAVE NOT DONE THAT YET, IS THERE A CERTAIN KIND OF SPANX YOU WOULD RECOMMEND, I HAD TUMMY TUCK WITH LIPO AND LIPO ON INNER THIGHS, I SEE THEY HAVE 3 KINDS, LIKE SUPER ETC.

I like the Assets line. The mid thigh shaper is really good. I also got the compression cami but that doesn't work It rolls up. Swimming will feel good. It really stretches your abs.

Kathy, I got the spanx that is a body suit. It kinda looks like a bathing suit. It has a snap crotch. It stays in place, you don't have to worry about it riding up. I think they say it is "moderate" control. I got a small and it does the trick!

Hi all pretty ladies,
I am doing pretty well. Moving around too much I think though. TT almost painless now except for drains. BA bit sore on the sides and skin still very tight and hard.
I hope what I'm seeing from TT is still swelling, else I don't know if I am going to be as flat as I hoped. Will be seeing the PS later this week and maybe shed some light.
Sleeping still problem for me. Doing 30mins at a time.
Today is Tuesday, 6 po. And as I said very little pain, more just discomfort.
I will try to load before pics later today.
Oh yeah, I am very very emotional and seem to cry about almost everything - is this normal? I am not usually the emotional/crying type.
Love
Lu

I have been VERY emotional, it is starting to get better but for the first 2-3 weeks after surgery I cried about anything, it was really strange, I am not a cryer either, I still cry a little but nothing like those first few weeks, guess it effects us emotionally also, so dont feel bad about it, just go ahead and cry, I wish i knew this before...........I thought I was going nuts !

It think feeling "weepy" is pretty common. I know I had several good cries, and I'm not even sure why!
