  • Posted to Family vacation planned 4 1/2 weeks post tummy tuck? on 26 May 2012
    I guess it depends on the type of vacation you're taking, and how much activity is involved! It also depends on the extent of themuscle repair you have. If you're going somewhere you can just chill and will have plenty of help with the kiddos, you'll be ok... but I was still fatigued quite easily at that point, and the swelling is also something to think about!
  • Posted to Has anyone done any tanning after TT on 26 May 2012
    I'm wearing my bikini bottom to cover the big scar, but the belly button scar has been exposed and I've noticed no darkening of the scar. Hope that helps! :)
  • Posted to 11 months later - had revision surgery 9 days ago on 22 Apr 2012
    I'm 12 weeks PO and my Jeans just started getting big on me, for some the pain, and the swelling lingers on for quite some time. The patience required for this post op period is enormous....but I promise it's worth it! :)
  • Posted to Pant size before TT, and then after TT? on 2 Apr 2012
    My pant size didn't change at all after surgery, although I have read some posts of people that lose several sizes! My pants to look much more flattering though, I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have been wearing the size I was! Haha
  • Posted to Full Tummy Tuck March 26!! Bye Bye Belly!! - Omaha, NE on 2 Apr 2012
    Those drains are not fun, but man oh man do they serve a purpose! I didn't have all that much swelling until after they were removed, and then the swelling hit. I really couldn't say which was worse, but I was allowed to shower with mine in, which is prob why I didn't HATE them! I'm not a fun girl to be around when I don't feel clean! :) But darn girl, you look fantastic already, you're going to LOVE LOVE LOVE your result! :)
