Monday is my pre-op day.
I'm scared, to be honest, which is why I'm here reading.
I'm 50 this year. I'm the Mother of 4 grown children. My life has been about my family but now that everyone is grown it's my time! My stomach has bothered me since the birth of my first child at the young age of 17. I was planning on it awhile back but always found a reason not too. I paid my deposit so that I wouldn't back out. I had to cancel last time due to a bad fall. My husband recently lost his job, there was my reason not to but I decided we'd survive with me doing this. I have another 20 years of enjoyment and I don't want this bulge. It wasn't this bad until 10 years ago.

My pre-op went well. While there I was talking to the nurse she was very comforting. I had originally planned on mommy makeover but was worried about recovery, and cost. She explained that the tummy tuck is the most painful procedure and by doing both the breast discomfort is negligible. I discussed it with my husband. We decided to go ahead and do it. It's an additional $3000. But I won't have to take off another two weeks, go through the pain, and pay $5500. I'm sure I'll be in a great deal of pain but it will be worth it!

Welcome to the community!

We are going to call this your 50 and fabulous year.   You deserve this and will love the results.  Best thing I ever did for myself and I would do it all over again if necessary.  

A couple more weeks and you will be on the road to recovery.

One more week to go! I've filled my prescriptions and purchased all of the items I'll need. I'm fortunate to have a bed that lifts. From everything thing I've read it looks like the first week will be spent there.
