Time for TT...Saying Goodbye to my Sad Belly Button!!! Boston, MA

Thank you ! And yeah I'll be buying ear plugs tomorrow . I still have stitches in bb so maybe I have to wait until dr removes them ??? But I so want a cute round bb .
I did my 2nd BA almost 2 yrs ago this time with BL as I had 2 more kids with breast feeding . So thank s again I'm happy with them :-)
Look so much bigger now that my tummy is smaller lol - O Boy !!!

My stitches where the dissolvable ones? I remember after the yellow gauze over the bb was no longer needed that the nurse said it was ok for me to use an ear plug to shape it. How does it work with the BA&BL? Did you get the implants above or below the muscle, saline/silicon, scar? Where was the incision made? Sorry for so many questions. Your boobs look great with your waist, not crazy looking.

Thanks lol think they look even bigger now that waist is smaller ... Whoa ! Still not cleared ( PO in 2wks) Plus I'm a lil concerned about middle of scar looks a lil open :-( changing gauze everyday .

Take a picture of the middle. Maybe I can help? I had an open incision so I would not want that for you. Make sure you call your PS to have him check it out right away. If the opening is tiny, keep it dry with a dry gauze. Good luck!

Oh no :( Hope it gets better for you!!

It is small .,, I've called and left 2 msg for PS & sent a pic .
I'm keeping it cleaned and covered with dry gauze :-) I'll compare my pics on Friday to see if it's improving .

Thank you !!! :-)

Thank you ! Just measured this morning 26 1/2 inches - WOW
I was 29-30 in before surgery . Having the MR with TT really helped to bring that waist back in ! No more square look . Hour glass -YES!!

We just need to be patient ( so hard) wouldn't want to ruin the overall results we will see once the gym is back on the schedule . Ps I hate what this is doing to my ass too - ugh squeezing my cheeks as I type lol we got this Girl ! I feel like in 2 weeks doing a few light exercise s should be fine :-)

Lol booty squeezing love it haha yes I'm definately going to try a few light things and walking next week. Don't wanna ruin any of this amazing tuck work :) Just hard emotionally when I'm used to that as my outlet. Feeling out of my element

My surgery went well ( positive attitude ) for ride home put something under your feet ( box) helps to keep you bended while sitting . For the first 3 days ( hardest) just take meds , drink water , eat fruit , soup & sleep !
Day 5 I had my PO and he removed drains . Didn't hurt . Swelling is the most uncomfortable part of this for me ... So I'm eating tiny portions , low salt or no salt foods . I can't wait to start waist training and working out again . Good luck to you :-) ask me anything .

Awesome yea you look great & thanks for the response . So you do go home the same day cause I know paper work said the next day . An yea I figured food with no salt would be recommended cause the swelling . How was walking to the car right after surgery ? The drains are the one thing that really freaks me out

Yes went home and I'm glad I did ! Nice to be back home as long as you have help . A hospital stay only if someone is considered high risk . They will wheel you right out to car . My husband pulled right up to front so no walking :-) Doc gave me a nerve block so didn't feel any pain for hours maybe even the next day . The drains didn't really bother me ( just be careful of them ) I pinned them up on binder . You will need a recliner though !!! I have a recliner bed so I spent 10 days in it - Healing ! I'm still reclined a lil when I sleep but going down each night just a lil more . And lots of pillowes , neck pillow too . I used a shower chair for the first 3-4 showers .

I will rent a recliner for a month then I know it's only 1 something for it . But ok thank you for all your help your awesome ! An i can't wait to see how you continue to progress ! You look amazing

Thank you ! Feeling pretty good actually . Swell hell is no joke but I'm used to it lol Can't wait for the 3 month mark ... Again

He removed my drains on day 5 and yes the out put had almost stopped . However I still could tell there is fluid inside . It's slowly going down .

He pulled my bb thru new skin since the skin was pulled down . Looks like I'll have scar from old bb hole . He didn't know if that would happen during our consult . So after surgery he said not enough loose skin to cut it out . Just hope scar heals good so I don't notice it after a yr . Just taking half a pill for pain when needed . Swelling is uncomfortable from time to time . Need more sleep !!!

So a scar is your only hold up ? Some women will cover scar with tattoo ... Not my thing , but would consider it if this scar is too much for me to look at everyday . I've learned you can get belly chain looking tats in a gold / silver color . Things to consider if a raised scar is holding you back ;-)

Yes. I have scars now from the incisions Dr.D had to do for the bbl. Plus a keloid is a raised scar, a tat can't hide that. And mine are dark red and sensitive. Oh well, no belly shirts for me.

Thank you thank you THANKYOU !
Good luck with your BBL - you will love it :-) xo
