35 Years Old, After 2 Children - Calgary, AB

Finally, found some time to post pictures. Now at the 7 week mark and feeling human again. I still have a few numb parts around my belly and lots of swelling on days when I do a bit more. Still haven't slept on my tummy, not sure if it is fear or just have gotten used it. Had my first massage this week and it was amazing, so probably can go back to laying on my tummy! Had my 6 week check up with Dr. Whidden on the 18th of March. He was very happy with the results and so am I. The silicone scar strips seem to be working well, the nurse mentioned commented on how good the scar looked. That was probably one of my biggest fears - that the scar would look awful - very happy with the improvement thanks to the silicone strips - highly recommend them!

I'm pretty sure I over did it this week. I attempted dance class at 3.5 weeks and for the first time took my binder off all day. I felt pretty swollen and tight at the end of the day, but it was nice to feel free! Looking forward to burning that thing once the doctor give me the all clear. My belly button is looking a little red today and a thin dark line is appearing right below it. Not too sure what it is?!?! Finally starting to feel somewhat human again but still having a bit of numbness all over my tummy.
