Had my Tummy Tuck Yesterday and Feel SO Good!

UPDATED FROM CNYmomma

Day 2 PO, still no pain..

WORTH IT$8,000
On day two and still pain free, without narcotics. I've taken ibuprofen just in case some pain starts but I feel none. I can get up/move around, stand, and walk without issue and I feel the incision, but just really feels like I did a hard ab workout. I go tomorrow to my first post op appointment and to have my pain pump removed. I'm 40, in decent shape (strong/workout daily but still have about 15 pounds to lose & some toning), and am just shocked at how good I feel. Is this normal??

Dr. Baum did my tummy tuck with muscle repair, and I can't say enough wonderful things about him & his staff. Dr. Baum is the ultimate professional, spends as much time with his patients as they need, called me at home after surgery & provided a number to reach him directly. He told me exactly what to expect with my tummy tuck and he has far exceeded my expectations. I'm 3 days post op and feel amazing! Thank you, Dr. Baum, for giving me a tummy I love!

I had a TT with muscle repair with Dr Baum too and I had the save experience. I felt good. The pain was pretty minimal.

I had my tummy tuck yesterday morning and cannot believe how good I feel. I felt horrible coming out of recovery, just becuase of the heavy head after the anesthesia. Slightly burning but no real pain. I'm pain free today and haven't taken any narcotics. I have an OnQ pain pump catheter inserted l, which must be amazing because again...no pain! My question is, is this normal?! Will the pain start sometime?? I had muscle repair and no lipo. Four pounds of skin removed.
