My Tummy Tuck Journey

So far so good! I Am a 29 year old who received a tummy tuck on yesterday(8/10/2018). Dr. Sexton and his staff were all so nice especially the ladies at the front of his office :)! I’m very sore and I can’t wait to see my results! Right now I have on my garment compression and can barely walk. I haven’t seen my stomach post op yet but I can tell it’s way flatter!

Whooooaaaaaaa ok so here I am 7 Days post op feeling a tad better! I took a shower Day 4 which made me feel much better although I still have my drain connected. Surgery is pretty intense no lie! I can walk and get around now however too much walking causes my lower back to heart. Guilt has started tugging on me because I can’t hold my daughter whose 11 months and she doesn’t understand why mommy isn’t playing with her! It makes me feel selfish:(! All in all recovery is going well!!! Ready to get rid of this drain next week!

I got my drain taking out, it didn’t hurt, honestly I didn’t know he had tooken it out! I did have 40cc’s of fluid in my upper abdomen that Dt. Sexton drained out with a huge needle which he said he may have to do up to 6 times If it comes back, the drainage wasn’t too painful though.
