12 weeks postop today! I went to FL 2 weeks ago and wore a bikini for the first time in 10 years. It felt great and I looked hot. ;)
I've had a lot of swelling at night the past few days, for no apparent reason. And I'm still more swollen now than I was at 6 weeks, but that seems normal from what I've read. I feel great and love the things I can wear now.
My waist is just under 25 inches.

6 weeks postop! I have some new stretch marks below my belly button, but ask me how much I care? That's right, not a damn bit. I'll still be rocking a bikini this summer!

I forgot to say I've lost another inch off my waist, for a total of 5 inches. Pre-surgery my natural waist was 30 inches, now it's 25 inches.

Ummmm if you are on 1 level I think you should be fine. I wouldn't lift him. Keep every thing close by.

If you have an easy recovery with no complications then it would be ok. But if you have the option for more help, go with it. Your energy level will be low.

You look awesome! Thanks for sharing your story. I'm scheduled for my TT in June and my daughter will be almost 18 months and likely still nursing. Can you share more of what it was like to breastfeed in the first few days PO? Did you use pillows over your belly? How did you position yourself and baby? Any tips would be GREAT! Thanks! :)

Thanks! I had my husband bring the babies to me in bed (I didn't use a recliner). I nursed them one at a time, and would just have them sit next to me on the bed with their legs straight out like mine. I put a small pillow between us so they couldn't accidentally hurt me. The first day my husband stayed while I nursed so he could help but they seemed to understand they had to be careful with me. Does that help? Good luck, let me know if you have any more questions!

Thank you! Yes, that helps so much! I was feeling a little anxious about that part of it, but your idea makes it seem much more doable. Glad everything turned out so well for you. Thanks again for sharing your story.
