Mini Tummy Tuck with Minor Muscle Repair

WORTH IT
After having 3 C-section babies, my scar, though virtually invisible, had attached to the muscle below it, creating a "lip" that could be seen in tight clothing or flat bathing suits. While doing some exercises, it also caused me some discomfort. Additionally, no matter how much I exercised, the loose skin just didn't go away. So, I opted for the mini TT. I didn't know until after the surgery, that I also needed minor muscle repair.

Thought: Plan your procedure as soon after your cycle as you can, so you have plenty of days to recover from the procedure and feel like dealing with your TOM. :)

Day 2 Postop

No drains for me! I do have compression stockings and a VERY uncomfortable binder though. I felt a sharp pain over both hip bones fairly shortly after surgery. I was afraid it was the incision site, but after seeing my doc on Day 2, we realized that my binder needed to be trimmed and straightened. The pain went away almost immediately after that. Walking slowly but feeling pretty good. I do have a muscular or ligament pain in my right side. I think it's from getting in and out of bed. Very happy with my incision site on Day 2!

Just after returning home from the doctor, my Maltese decided to jump on my lap to comfort me. AGGGG! Two paws directly into the gut on the same sore right side. OUCH! Hopefully, it's not a big deal.
