33 Years Old, Mother of Three TT with MR and Hernia Repair and BA

After having three kids, including a set of twins, my stomach was stretched beyond repair, leaving me with hanging skin and a hernia. After being referred to my PS from my general practitioner, I was told a TT would be the way to fix it. I was not gonna fight it! My husband jokingly told me I should get a BA while I was at it. I laughed it off but then started thinking I would like my pre baby boobs back too! At the last minute, we agreed to add the BA. My surgery date was 12/27/2013. The surgery was easy, this recovery, however, has been a roller coaster ride! I came home with two drains and didn't get them removed until 11 days PO. The drains were the worst part of recovery. I slept in my bed from day 1. After 2 c sections, I was familiar with how to get in and out of bed properly. There's no way I could have slept in a recliner. At 3 weeks PO my PS released me to exercise to my comfort level. I was ecstatic! Exercise it my drug of choice. However, at 3 weeks I only felt comfortable walking on a treadmill. Being a marathon runner, I'm anxious to run again! Now, at 5 weeks, I'm briskly walking 2 miles, and running 1 mile, slowly. I'm also doing light weights but avoiding core and chest work. Unfortunately, I never took before pictures bc I was so ashamed of my mangled stomach. Now, I'm wishing I would have to compare for when I'm down on myself now. I'm so happy to be at this point in recovery now, standing up straight, sleeping on my side, exercising, carrying my toddler, etc. I have several after pictures below updating my progress

Unfortunately, I have no before pics but I had the typical "twin skin" tummy with an umbilical hernia poking through for the cherry on top. ;)
I began taking pics at about 1 week PO
