Peace out Mummy Tummy - Cary, NC

I've had 3 totally awesome children in 4 years. What's not totally awesome is the way my stomach looks like now.It's pretty much like a scrotum hanging sadly on my midsection. I have no weight to lose, but the loose skin and abdominal separation have got to go. We're not going to have any children and my husband agreed to support me doing this. (He's not the biggest fan of having elective surgery, but he loves me and wants me to be happy. He's a really good guy.) I did tons of research and chose a surgeon about an hour and a half away.

On Friday I am getting my CBC drawn by my PCM, and soon I will have my preop visit. I'm looking forward to getting rid of the old lady face on my stomach.

So this is what I'm working with right now. Every time I tell someone I'm getting a tummy tuck they look at me like I'm crazy until I show them this.

I can't wait to be comfortable in my own (considerably less) skin again.

We've already paid for surgery and picked up the meds! It's crazy to think next Tuesday I'm going under the knife!

My parents have arranged to come into town very briefly to help with the kids, and I'm also looking forward to seeing them.

My husband is acting very nonchalant about the whole thing, nothing phases that guy! He is pretty amazing, I'm kind of excited that he will be able to take off from work so I can see more of him. Hopefully he will still like me after I'm all grouchy and weird from the pain meds.
