Healing well

Well it's been 4 weeks now, and I think it's going well. My scar looks pretty light and the scabbing has pretty much all fallen off at this point. I wish I was able to relax a bit more, but i don't have too many people around to help while my husband works, so lifting the twins gets pretty tiring after a long day. I can do it, but it doesn't feel great. I'll post more pics soon. Now I just need to get rid of that small amount of fat under the muscle I had for a while now. But I'm super excited to work back into working out again in 2 weeks. I miss it, and I plan to get in awesome shape for the summer now that I can wear a two piece. I don't care about the stretch marks. I had 3 kids…I'm not trying to fool anyone. I'm pretty comfortable sleeping on my sides, and really want to try my stomach soon, but I'm just not ready. I miss sleeping that way. Used to be my favorite way. Oh, and my last pic I had a weird looking belly button, and it still looks a little weird on top, but I think it's slowly starting to form into a normal looking one. We'll see.

Feeling pretty good. Just trying to lay down as much as possible while my mother
In law is here to help out. Sleeping in my own bed. Scar looks like it'll heal nicely. Now just gotta fix this belly button and lose some weight around my hips and belly and my final results will be great.

No more drains!!!

So happy. I feel like a new woman. I'm finally drain free and it feels amazing. Taking them out felt weird and hurt just a tiny bit but it wasn't bad. It hurt more leaving them in honestly. They were getting irritating. The nurse also took out my belly button stitches. I'll post pics soon, but my belly button looks weird. My surgeon said my bb was wrecked and was so deep he had trouble fixing it, but he will likely fix it and make it look better when I go in for my Breast lift in 3 weeks, so I'm not worried. I'm healing pretty well though. Now that the drains and stitches are out I feel normal. Still taking it easy but I'm so happy now. Now I have a chance at a real belly after I start working out. So excited.
