I am scheduled for a MM in 4 weeks. I have read, and read, and read about before and afters, but no one has addressed how one should plan to dress after. I am clear that swelling will last for weeks depending on the person, procedure, etc. I am 5.6" about 195. I had my last child over 40. I have a heavy drooping belly. Once the TT is over, will I be able to wear my current clothes? How soon after the TT will I need to have smaller clothes available?
