Hi, i've been reading this forum recently and decide to join in :-)
well I'm a mother of 2 kids, 7 and 10, both by c-section and they was big baby (9.7 & 8.5 at birth). I also have a fibroid in uterus ??? so when i carry them looklike I have twin.
I decide to get TT and got consulted with doc Franklin Richards last month, some of my friend got him and the results are very good, I original scheduled for july 12 but last week, they called me because I asked them if they have any cancellation. so I got a new date next Friday, June 14,
I currently weight 130 - 133 and almost 5', maybe 4'.11, but my tummy look really uggly, I'm wearing size 8 right now, hope I can reduce 1 or 2 size down after the procesure
any one with same date as mine in here? I plan to sleep on my bed since i don't have the recliner and the doc also said that I can sleep any position that I feel comfortable,
well the last two c-section, I slept in bed and had no problem...
wish me luck, my tt sisters

Hi silverspring_mom, good luck! I know you must be excited! It is worth it, to me. I got my TT 23 days ago. Best thing I ever bought for myself. Tonight is the first night I am sleeping in bed instead of the couch, but I have a lot of pillows propping me up so when I have to get up tomorrow I don't have to strain my stomach muscles to sit all the way up. My doc pulled my skin really tight, so I still can't stand up straight, which means I can't lay straight down either. Keep updating us! Best of luck to you!

I have about 72 hours to the big change,

tommorow I will start the medince that the ps gave me (take 3 days prior to the surgery) to reduce the swelling/bruising,

I also try to upload some photos now...
the big concern in my mind now is the injection of blood thinner after the operation, for 7 days, owwwwwwwwwwwch,
I don't know how to post multiple pics here, only let me select 1

I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see your new tummy! I hope you will be so happy. It's very uncomfortable for awhile, but it will heal! I keep telling myself this, too. You will do great!
