Full Tummy Tuck Along with Fibroid Removal ,Age 35 - Boston, MA

Lol! Been soo busy. Feeling good. Start my new job next week!! I am deff. Swelling way more now then I did weeks ago. I'm still wearing my binder for the most part..these past few days have been really uncomfortable w the swelling. I have no desire to take pictures or try cute clothes on...:) it's such a weird yucky feeling but this too shall pass..xo

Wowee, I forgot to post..then I was just going to put it off til a one month uodate..but I'll just do a little! I was a tiny bit annoyed..I have not seem my PS since surgery. I did go to the office to get my drains removed w the PA/nurse...I was told to call to make an appointment for the end of the month...so w a little phone tag ...the sec calls me and tells me she put me in for March 13th..? I'm finally starting a job on the 10th so I wanted to get my post op taken care of before then while I have free time...she told me to call back after I start work? Lol I was like when does Dr Austen normally see people...she said he likes to see them before 8 weeks?! I was like okay! Wtf? I read all these posts of people seeing their PS often..I guess I'm grateful because I feel I'm healing well but it would have been nice to see him sooner..now w starting work..who knows when I'll get in there. I did see my GYN surgeon so at least I know she feels things were looking good...and I don't need to see her again...anyways, I'm feeling really good. I'm deff. Blah from not being out in the world like normal..but I've been reading and watching a ton if documentaries :) I am oddly more uncomfortable then I was a couple weeks ago...I think I'm swelled a bit and the fact the feeling is returning I feel more sore to the touch...not much of a change to my look...if anything I prob looked flatter 2 weeks ago then today..like I said I'm a but swelled. I did take a picture just to show the change in the scar from one week it's deff changing and healing more..I do notice a tiny bit of puckering but I've read enough on it not to freak out. When I massage myself I can feel the sutures so I know that's what it is...and I'm happy w the way it's healing ...I'm still wearing my binder, I finally got my second one last week so I was able to was my first one..they want me to wear it for 6 weeks...I'm starting to feel attached to it :) but having it under my clothes inhibits the real feeling if my results but I can wait a couple more weeks. If I was to recommend a time for a TT I would deff. Say January! It's winter...it's cold...it's the perfect time to rest and to wear big clothes to hide binders and drains :) so all is swell ;) I've been working out my arms w 8 lbs weights as I lay in bed...it's going on 2 weeks and I'm deff toning up...I'm making sure my abs at to engaged..it's making me feel good I'm also doing a thigh master lol for my inner thighs..I can not wait to get back to Zumba! But honestly yesterday I was listening to some music and I tried to dance and its just not happening..I'm scared to move! Plus it's very tight...I'm not even going to try until after 6 weeks.. I still take pain meds at night :) they deff. Relax me and make me comfy for sleep..I haven't taken them in the day in over 2 weeks...I don't like the way they make me feel in the day...I treat my scar w a coconut oil massage and then I apply scarguardMD it's a silicone treatment..looks like nail polish ...you brush it on 2x a day..got it at target cost me 20.00..I never heard about that treatment the doctors office faxed for me? So I just got this stuff..I like it. I've been using it 5 days now...groupon had a mederma special so I have that coming in the mail too :) it's all good..love and healing to the RS peeps xo
