Mother of 3 C-section Kids - Scheduled for Full Tt and Lipo on June 15

alright then folks..an update is due..i had my full tt with love handle lipo on june 15...dr. said all went well..as for me..i was pretty out of it for the first 3 or so days...my binder was on toooo tight..gave me lots of discomfort but my pc was unavailable for concerns...i didn't have drains and that seems ok.i am super numb around the whole tummy area..i don't know how others are up and about within the week...i don't seem to have much energy to do much...got my staples taken out on day 7 and that felt better..been using a light bag of peas recently to help bring down swelling in ab. i have begun to wean myself off the heavy painkillers..back is sore...i don't know..this better be worth it i keep telling myself...good luck to everyone else

I feel your exact sentiments..I too have been blessed with 3 great kids(all c-section)..even though i was never big..I have always had love handles(even when I was only 103lbs) and now an apron hang over my incision area...I've lost most of my preg. weight..last stubborn 10lbs are hanging around my torso...I'm what they refer as "skinny fat" everywhere else I'm skin and bones except around the belly...so I have taken the plunge and am booked for full tt on June 15 in toronto..I feel like I have researched this subject to death...some ? to ask...how many tt does your pc do and how long has he been doing them...is this his specialty?...does he use drains?..is lipo(to smooth out ) inclusive of fee? of course make sure they are board certified...you want to see that they are a plastic surgeon and not just general surgeon...ultimately you have to like your dr. after all, you are paying for this out of your pocket..good luck

you could try kiwis..pears...high fibre cereal to help soften stool..allbran with yoghurt is a good brkfst start...good luck..sounds like you're doing fine..
