I just want to warn and raise awareness, it's not just painful but the emotions that occur during the process is draining. It's so painful and I wondered why did I do this to myself. Why would I choose to put myself through pain because of what I think I should look like from magazines. Then I felt emotional because I have two children, 2.5 years old and 9 months old, and I can't take care of them. It KILLS me when they cry and need me and I can't make their food the way they want or give them their bath like they like or change their diaper. I literally feel helpless and in extreme pain. My back hurts the worse from staying bent over. I just think they don't warn you how emotional the surgery can be.
Overall I am very happy I went through with the procedure but it has been very tough and I am only 11 days post op.

Every day gets easier :-) I only cry every other day lol every other day I feel a new sensation or pain. I'm 2 weeks post and am starting to feel the superficial pain. I think when he ripped off my steri strips my skin ripped off or maybe it's normal idk but it hurts so bad and I think it's infected. My belly button is off center too but that may just be swelling. I'm going to post photos :-)

I had my tt on April 7 2015. 1st weeks was horrible!!!!. 2-3 week my body still hurt, my rear end was in major discomfort from sleeping on my back. And I felt as if I was going to lose my mind being confined to the house. More particular 1room, the sofa, and my tv & iPad. But there is hope I'm going on 6 weeks post op. I'm feeling better everyday. Still sleeping on back elevated & with pillows under my knees. I'm not completely on the flat side yet & my incision us still closing in the center area like you. Keep your sanity it gets better!!

I went thru the same extreme emotional roller- coaster! All i can say is that faith plays a very important role. Also, It's very important good nutrition with the support of supplements during your recovery.
