After my 2nd Consultation in 5 years I’m finally ready for TT with muscle repair!!!

3 babies and now 48! I want my two piece swimsuits to no longer be tankinis!!! Had my 2nd consultation on February 15,after having scheduled it in September. Yes it took me that long just for the consultation. He's in high demand and from my first impression 5 years ago and with the current research on his practice; the results speak for themselves. Now 3 month after the initial consultation, my my pre-op was scheduled. ( However during this waiting period , i was given access to wonderful presentations,videos, social media groups full EVERYTHING COSMETICS SURGERY PREPARED!!!!) Now Pre op finally arrives and included is a quick Q&A with coordinator (a must!!! So helpful), the horrid before photos, a brief medical review and quick one one with Surgeon to ask any last minute questions. And of COURSE the MOULAH!!!$$$. So I must say I have had pleasant experiences thus far. Next appt via phone. Medical Review.

Intense tightness around the waist area. Painful to move in any direction. I began antibiotics, that’s been added to my pain med,Tylenol, Motrin , zofran, and gabapentin. This is the day i begin to notice a bit of itching after taking the pain meds so now Benadryl has been added. I walked a few mins every 2 hours while awake to keep my blood circulating, I’m still wearing the compression socks from surgery. Did not have much of appetite today but i managed to eat a few pieces of watermelon and small bowl of rice. I purchased a silicone urinal(sooooo helpful) and a lung exerciser. So far so good

Very rough night. I couldn’t get comfortable. My meds were definitely taken practically around the clock to ease the pain and discomfort.
