39yo Mama of 2 Littles Finallllly Gets a MommyMakeover W/mini TT and BA. Austin, TX
I had my 1st baby at 35 and 2nd at 37. They are...
I had my 1st baby at 35 and 2nd at 37. They are now 3&5. Body popped right back after the 1st but w/2nd I was JACKED UP! My abs had split and even though I was dedicated to training HARD in the gym for 3+ years I still looked 5-6 mo preg!!amd then I ended up w/an umbilical hernia bc of the seperation and it popped out my already stretched out weird bellybutton...Pissed me OFF!! Even my husband said it wasn't fair to train and eat the way I do and not have the body I deserve....met w/3 diff drs before made decision. I was so nervous but SO ready!! I have fibromyalgia (pain disorder) & was terrified of PO pain... It was the worst ever!! It's the kind of pain that u actually forget bc it's so bad... Ya know? Like childbirth? The 1st few days I stayed looped UP on pills and had 24/7 help for the 1st week and moderate help from there on. I am somewhere @ the 6 wk PO mark and already LOVE my results! The TT scar is right along my csection scar and doesn't have the csection flap anymore. My boobs are amaaaaziiing...
I was nervous at 1st bc they were HUGE 1st cpl days out but have settled in nicely. Right one still higher than L bc I'm R handed so I'm told. And they have more drop to do but the gel silicone is the way to go! Wasn't prepared for my nipples being so sensitive. One thing that was bad is that when the numbness started wearing off (top to bottom) I hurt more like 4 wks out than i had previously. I am still swollen and numb from the bellybutton down. I can't seem to find compression garments small enough HA!! I need a 00 and even the XS spanx and yummietummie stuff is loose now. I Remember I was second guessing my decision about 2 wks post op bc I couldn't do anything with my kids and I was so sore and swollen so big that I actually had to buy BIGger clothes than what I had.
At the 10 day PO mRk I took a bad spill on my bathrm floor due to my son spraying coconut oil everywhere and doing so I pulled my drain tube ( DRAIN TUBE IS THE WORST) a little bit. The stuff coming out had already turned from blood red to kind of a yellowish fluid (gag) and after the fall it was red again for few days. Bc of that I had to wear my drain tube for an extra week and a 1/2. So gross and can't hide it well when in public. HATED it with a passion. It was finally removed with zero pain... Couldn't feel it at all actually and was surprised to see how long the tube actually was! I have my 6wk PO visit on Monday and I am hoping I get released to start exercising again. I miss my muscles!! It's been a long six weeks. But I am being patient... I know it can take a full year to be completely healed. I am just sooooo glad i was able to get it done. My dr and his staff made me very comfortable from the get go and I am delighted in his results... As are my husband and all of my ladies ... My best friend has decided she wants him to do her boobies this winter. I will try to post some pix of my progress over the last few weeks... After I massage my new big azzzz boobies for a few minutes! ;$
