I had a WONDERFULL TUMMY TUCK 15 YEARS AGO.And i just had a baby last year.I had a vaginal birth and had no complications from TT, except things were a bit tight and I carried high.But now with this pregnancy Ihave to have a C-section due to placenta previa. I'm so scared!Will it be difficult because of my TT?Have no idea if the muscels were sown together, and Doc is out of practice, now.Can't find any info on C-section after Tummy Tuck, help! Hope to hv a new TT when this is all over.
