I've schedule my tummy tuck and it's 4 months away. I'm scared out of my MIND. The doctor will be using a medicine ball for pain. Has anyone had one of these? Did it really help?! I'm REALLY scared...but I've lost 40 pounds and my stomach is the only thing that doesn't reflect all of my hard work. I've delivered 3 children and two of those births were natural. How bad is the pain and how long will I be down and unable to care for myself?!?!?!
