2 Kids, 2 C Sections, 1 Emergency Surgery......... And Active Spend Most my Year in a Bathing Suit. - Dublin, CA

I decided to do breast augmentation, mini tummy tuck and lipo of the flanks. At first I was just going to do a scar revision, but for not much more I turned it into the mini tuck, and since I was going under I looked back into the augmentation. I've felt like I wanted it since I was about 16, being so active with strong arms and wide shoulders I didn't feel proportionate. I went from 36 b to 36c after having kids but it was not a full c, they actually didn't look bad either but just didn't feel as feminine as I'd like I saw other women with my body type and bigger and fuller just looks better.... More to come.

To date I'm not doing too bad, still can't sleep flat on my back but I'm not on any pain meds, I take a flexiril before bed which seems to help with the stiffening during the night. When I sit up in the morning after being asleep for awhile I get painful burning feeling on my left boob around the nipple and lower bottom but with some holding, slow adjustment and some massage it subsides. It is mild now compared to the first few days after surgery, at first it would hurt to bad id sqeak and almost scream and it was anytime either side shifted. I had a hard time berating at first but realized with the compression garment from the mini TT that I had a hiatal hernia... I had it durning pregnancy.. Back on Zantac and back to normal, well after 2 days. No it wasn't pulmonary embolism.. I've had one once ....you'd never mistake shallow breathing for it... Long story.... Anyway the new girls feel huge to me, they've dropped some but still have a ways to go. I'm getting more comfertable and just told my mom about this today so that was one elephant off my chest lol, other then that I'm swollen from what I saw before all the swelling I will love the end results but the impatience I have is killing me

I was sucking it in, but as I said I wasn't bad. Honestly the reason for scar revision mini tummy tuck was a lump that bathingsuit hid pretty well just looked like the suit pushed in a little causing it but you could see the lump when wearing dresses and I had stress incontinance. Most of what I knew was all the scar tissue from the 2 csection sand the emergency surgery and something with the actuall pregnancies were the cause... So it was not 100% that the mini tuck would fix. But right after the surgery I noticed a huge change... I had to make my self pee, before I always had to tighten to make sure I didn't. And unlike my mom saying no surgery do kegals... Umm no I could stop myself midstream on a full bladder and still have an issue if I sneezed on an empty bladder.. Drs said only surgery would fix... Although kaiser said if 3 surgeries caused it another may not help... Which is why I didn't want to use them. Anyway embarrassing to admit that one......, I will see about some after photos maybe next time I take the compression garment off my lower half. I think I may still have the same suit.
