49yr Old, Mother of 3, Flabby, Saggy Belly with Diastatis in Need of Help! Full TT with Lipo

8 week update. I am pretty much back to normal - not wearing any cg or support garment at all - still puffy above my scar line and pubic area but it feels worse than it looks. I religiously put scar cream on once a day and re-apply the micropore tape - otherwise it crinkles and makes the skin crease too. I've got two pearls in my belly button to keep the shape Lol - and I've been using competed blister plasters as they are pretty invisible. I'll post some photos of the scars when I next replace the tape. Thrilled and delighted and it keeps getting better. My muscles are so taut that I have to really stretch out slowly in the morning and also if I have been sitting for a long time. It feels like I have a permanent corset on now - which is great.

4 weeks - yay. My PS agree to let me fly last weekend - just short haul but I had a lovely weekend with friends - I was a tad nervous about flying - not knowing what to expect and if I would swell up. I kept my binder on and was fine - I did loads of walking every day which I think really helped. I sat yesterday working on my computer and changed my binder for some reallytright knicker things up my boobs - whoah - what a mistake - I swelled up and was in agony for ages - had to go and lie down and leave my kids to their own devices. Not sure why this happened? - the sitting or the new binder but I have gone back to the hospital one. Still swollen a lot - especially the pubic area which I hate (see in the bikini pic) but I know it will go down eventually. Still thrilled with my new tummy - just wish I could buy new clothes and show it off but need to wait a few months I guess. So my nurse (UK) had never heard of people using tape on their scar????? Everyone on this forum seems to use it - what is your advice everyone? Does it work, make it flatter??? I'll use anything that helps. Do you use it on BB scar too? That the scar I;m most worried about because it's so obvious you've had a TT if that looks odd. I'll take a pic of that too - not sure I'm happy with it but not much I can do about it either?? Thanks again for sharing all your stories - it's made it a whole lot easier for me [RS bleep]

Took dressings off to have a peek - still swollen but looking good - knickers just about cover up scar - guess I will have to buy bikini bottoms with more coverage. Note the pearl in my belly button to keep it wide lol ????
