2 years post op
Can't believe it's been two years!!
I just thought I'd upload this pic I took today of the scar and how it looks two years later. I don't remember seeing too many far-out pics when I was reading this site.

New photo: Scar 4 1/2 weeks out
Hi! I took my tape off in the shower this morning, and thought I'd leave it off for a day before I replace. I keep forgetting to ask the PS office if this is ok. I know they say the tape helps the scar from being raised and red but I am considering trying the silicone scar sheets. Anyone try them? What brand is working out for everyone?
Four weeks!!
I went to work today, as usual, but I wore my usual high heels. I felt like myself for the first time in a month!! I really feel great!!
I would say the mommy makeover has affected me like this:
First week: total rough go
Second week: better, but not by too much
Third week: better, swelling less and standing straighter but it's effort
Fourth week: big difference! Feeling good and almost back to normal
Little things I notice: sneezing still hurts but nowhere near as bad.
Sleeping on my side still hurts a little (my incision wraps around) and some discomfort in moving around in bed.
If I don't have a tight or supportive bra, when I get home from work I want to put on a sports bra. A tight one that holds them in. I feel great if I wear a tight bra all day.
I do not like compression garments so much, they're just not for me. I bought two like my surgeons office recommended but I just don't like the tightness. It's uncomfortable to me.
Boobs feel weird! It's different! They look great though!
I have a hard time shopping! I sed to find clothes all the time, every time I would go shopping I would find lots of clothes I had to buy. I'm not a big spender (I don't pay full price for anything, I love sales and coupons and clearance racks). Now I can't find things! I've been shopping 3-4 times and come home empty handed. Maybe it's because I want my clothes to make my body look great and if it doesn't look great I don't buy it... My old clothes fit fine but my boobs are quite a bit bigger now so certain things look too small in the top part. And my baggy off-shoulder tops, I still like the style but its just not as flattering on my figure now. I guess if that's all I have to complain about I'm doing pretty good :-)
I do have an angry stitch that doesn't want to heal. I've been at the surgeons office every week for it. I'm on antibiotics now. It's right in my TT incision in the front to the left a little. Just one stitch. But it's red and angry and just doesn't want to heal! Noticed it at one week post op. hoping the antibiotics take care of it and it dissolves. Anyone let me know if you want to see a pic.
Love to read your stories.
Happy healing girls!

Provider Review
I looked at Dr. Squires' website online and had a good feeling about him. His staff made me feel so comfortable and I loved his presence, very calming and professional. Everyone says he is a perfectionist. Love him!!
