28yrs Old, 4 C-sections, I've Been Wanting This Forever! - Tyler, TX

Tomorrow I get my drains removed. I'm able to lay pretty flat. I've been off pain meds for a few days. Arnica gel has worked wonders for swelling. I'm satisfied with my new tight flat tummy but having complications healing near my gallbladder scar.

Meant to post yesterday. The past few days I've been back on my THRIVE product and I'm back to feeling great and sleeping completely thru the night like a baby without pain meds!! My favorite thing about THRIVE is the amazing sleep but also the only time I have a bowel movement is right after I take the thrive capsules. Nothing else worked not the fiber therepy or colace stool softener. I had tried the magnesium citrate it just gave me diarrhea. So yes, this is exactly why I love my life on thrive. Also it helped tremendously with the swelling inflammation after the first day of being back on it!!! I woke up and my binder was so very loose and my soreness was gone,it was exciting :) if anyone would like to check into these products you can go to laurasaenz.le-vel.com woman's capsules and regular dft Foam patch is what's doing it for me!! But I wish I had some yummy shakes as well. Still waiting on more bruising to go away. Having a little difficulty healing where gallbladder scar was and so ready for these drains to come out but I am in love with my new flat tight tummy. Cant wait to post a before and after

I'm at 4 days post op. I keep having bad dreams at night talking in my sleep and hearing things in my sleep too,has anybody else gone thru that kinda stuff?...the things that are really helping me most besides my pain meds is the arnicare gel for the muscle spasms and stiffness(I only use it on the top half of my stomach, nowhere near the wound) Nauzene chewables every time i feel nauseus!! Equates version of Gas Relief and Prevention has also been great! I've been taking colace hasn't been doing anything for me. I've drank apple juice still no bowel movement. I am a THRIVE promoter and started taking my BOOST again (probiotics and prebiotics) the stuff is amazing and usually cleans me out great but...still no bowel movement. It does however make me feel a healthy kind of full which is great cuz I don't want to start ruining my new stomach with more unhealthy fatty foods. So, I am still trying other stuff to get a bowel movement. I'm not sure how important that is. My check up is tomorrow and I'll be getting stitches removed already. The walking around part has just been so much easier than I thought it would be. My Dr let me a take a shower 2 days after my surgery so I got to glance at all the scary bruises and stitches, deformed belly button little swelling and blisters and to be honest I was kind of thinking what in the world have I done but when I seen the before pics my husband took of my stomach, it all made sense!!! I do not miss the belly and I'm going to have more faith that this will look better soon :)
