WORTH IT$17,300
After giving birth to 3 children in less than 2 years put my body in a state of despair. Unhappy with myself after delivering my last baby, I have been dieting and exercising for past year. Seen no significant changes since Oct. and hating my extra skin that pours over. I went for my consult a few weeks ago. Together we decided to have a breast lift with 400cc mentor gel implants, and an extended tummy tuck. Date scheduled for May 15th!

Feeling guilty
4dndd1012April 10, 2015
So I am about a month out from my mommy makeover and I'm starting to feel really guilty about it.. I have twins that are 3 today and the baby just turned 1 on Monday (and I have only cried a little, lol).. My husband is the best father and I know he can take care of them 100% without me but I'm worried that it's going to be too much on him while I'm healing.. Also feeling guilty about spending this kind of money on just me.. I know that I deserve this as I always put everyone else's needs before mine.. Anyone else have these feelings? Maybe it's because I have been slowly telling family and friends about it and although 99.9% have been positive about the transformation it's the 0.1% of negativity that gets to me..
Don't get me wrong tho.. This is still going to happen! No turning back! Lol

Good luck with your surgery. I had those same guilty feelings. Trust me, they will go away once you see your new bod. lol Really though, your hubby and kids will greatly benefit from a happy, confident mama. It's so worth it. :)

Good for you. I am struggling with the same things. My kids are older, but it's so hard for us to put us first! It's our turn!

I agree! I keep telling myself that I'm doing it for them, having a happy, confident mother is what every little girl (or in my case, 3) needs! Lol

Very normal to have a little guilt. I did, it's lots of money, time to recovery, but it's so worth it!!! You are going to look amazing!!!!.....and that's a gift for the hubby :)

That's what I worry about the most.. Recovery.. My husband will be home the first week and a half.. I'm just hoping it'll be enough time.. I go back to work on day 22.. I guess if I need to I'll put the kiddos in daycare and call off of work..

Thanks for sharing your story! Are you getting the breast lift and the tummy tuck at the same time? If so, that's called a Mommy Makeover. If you'd like me to move you to that community and get support there, let me know. I just want to make sure you get what you need from RealSelf!.
Sure thing! You've been moved. Best of luck!
