5 Kids in 4 Years - Couldn't Be Happier!

I am 3 weeks post surgery. Had my tummy tuck on 3/8/2010. I had 5 kids in 4 years, including triplets so my stomach was way out of whack. I lost about 25 lbs before going for my tummy tuck. I was 151 lbs the day I walked into surgery.
The first day after surgery was horrible. I have a high pain tolerance and it was really lousy - until I took the pain meds. That made all the difference in the world in those first 48 hours. My recovery has been great, and I haven't experienced anything my doctor didn't tell me. His staff is top-notch, kind, courteous, friendly and real. I could not be happier and cannot wait to see the final results!
May I ask which pain meds were prescribed to you?
Glad you are doing well. It seems like you were able to manage the pain. What scares me is some of the ladies saying the pain was bad and meds barely take the edge off.
