A little about myself. I am one day away from being 31yrs old. Jan 11th will make 11 years of being married ONLY marriage for both and last I pray.lol! from being married for almost 11 years we have 5 kids 4 girls and finally a boy as our last child. we are complete. I am a stay home mom. I always wanted a tummy tuck but wasnt finished having kids, so now that im finished im so ready. almost every night im on youtube looking at journeys. it helped out. Today is my pre-op and Oct 17th 2013 is my surgery date. im excited not to much nervous because im super confident in my decision. it may change the closer i get to the day but as of now im just excited. when i decided to get it i didnt feel much support from friends, because it was like they made an issue on how their husbands are satisfy with them but its not just about your husband what about your feelings and how YOU want to look. My husband never complain but i know he wouldn't mind seeing me extra sexy what man wouldn't. He is all for it especially knowing that i am totally happy with what i decided to do. Right now i am the smallest i have ever been since my first child. I am 134lbs and 5"1. I planned on documenting everything from the pre op to my one year mark for myself. Thanks everybody thats willing to share their experience it helps.

Hey there. I am in Metairie and have my TT and breast lift scheduled for Nov 21. I am going to follow your story because I have wanted to do this since I had my twins and don't want to back out. I have heard wonderful things about your surgeon ( I just wanted to pick one on the south shore). Are u nervous at all?

Im not nervous, just yet but excited and anxious. The only part is being home alone with my oldest 3 out of 5. I explained to them that im getting a tummy tuck and how painful it will be. They seem to understand but we'll see. But im very comfortable with my doctor and confident in her work so im not nervous about that. the pain I'm not to afraid because I dealt with contractions with my last one and THINK that there is no pain worse than that.LOL

I'm 4 days post op. Had MM with BA, TT, and lipo on my arms, inner thighs, back and a little fat injected in my butt. It's been tough but with medicines and LOT and LOTS of help and EXTRA patience you will get through this. Good luck on your journey. I wish you the best of luck. Don't mind your nerves... It's very normal to be scared.

I understand. As a mother it is hard to let go when we are in charge of everything. Don't be ashamed to ask for help or to take it. I am excited for you :-)
