5 weeks PO

WORTH IT$7,100
Hello ladies! Sorry I haven't been checking in. I've been having some good moments and some bad moments. I'm loving my shape BUT I have a problem when I sit down. I think I might need some lipo. I know ...I know...I'm only 5 weeks po but i shouldnt have loose skin hanging a little over my scar. The front swelling is gone!!! (THANK GOD). That was starting to scare me for 4 weeks. But I put Arnica gel on it after 4 weeks and it went away overnight. Now...this morning I took my silicone tape off of my scar so that I could shower and noticed a little puss on it. It looks like a small piece of my stitches that they left in is pushing out. Its a TINY little dot. So i go to the doctor next week so they can cut it. But other than these little things...im wonderful. Next week marks 6 weeks so I'll be at the gym 1st thing monday morning starting cardio.

Quick Update

Hey ladies!!! I wanted to let you all know that I am feeling WONDERFUL!!! I'm walking completely upright! YAY!!! I have been sleeping in my bed with no problems...cleaning with no problems...driving is still a little uncomfortable for me. Only when I make a turn. But other than that I feel amazing. I caught myself dancing earlier today so its a good sign that I can move my hips a little bit. I'm still VERY swollen along my incision line. So hopefully that will go away soon just to ease my mind. I went out for the first time Friday with my family and I felt like I had a little pudge from the swelling. So it still kind of makes me felt like I still have that big gut. :-( But I know it will eventually go down. I'm just being a little impatient. But I'll post pics tomorrow ladies! Have a great Sunday! :-)

How did it go with the Dr. today? Belly button all healed up?
March 11, 2014
I haven't gone yet. I go thursday. And a nurse is taking the stitches out. Not sure if I'll even see Dr. Galiano during this visit. But have you had your consult with him yet?!

March 11, 2014

Was thinking of you.. How's it going? Moving around more? How about pain? Have you gone back to work?
March 14, 2014
Hey Toyi! My pain level is at 0! YAY!!! Walking completely upright. I can laugh, cough, and even sneeze and that was the worst of them all. My stomach just feels tight but I have no pain. A nurse took out my stitches today. Wasn't bad at all. I can finally see my belly button. But I am still ridiculously swollen. That is my only concern. It just seems to me that its not going down at all. So im still tdying to be patient! Im gonna post some pics i took this morning before my appt but i still look exactly the same now!
March 14, 2014
I think im gonna order an ab board to see if that helps with the swelling!!!
