My procedure is scheduled for tomorrow morning. I am having an umbilical float tummy tuck and a breast lift to hopefully undo some of the damage done by having three wonderful children. I am currently 5'4" and 130 lbs. My heaviest non-pregnant weight was 166 lbs. I have uploaded some before pics and will let everyone know how it turns out!

Hope your surgery went really well and you are back on your feet soon. What kind of lift are you having? I'm thinking about the same. Also how did you find your surgeon? Will look forward to your updates.

I had an auto augmentation breast lift, which means he took some from the underside of my breast and used it to fill in the upper pole.

Wow, looking great so far, congratulations. I'm 11 days post and feeling a lot better also and so far I'm happy with the results but I'm still swollen. My surgeon doesn't like working with drains so I'm relying on my body to get rid of all fluids. Slowly achieving it :) Stay healthy and best of luck :)

It's been almost 24 hours since the surgery, and so far, so good. I've been taking my painkillers, and so far have had very little pain. The worst is getting up and then getting back down again. I had the TAP block, so I'm sure that really helped the first night. The part of my TT incision I can see below the binder looks good. I've only eaten brown rice cakes so far, but my husband went to get some yogurt for me. I don't have any nausea, but everything I eat tastes funny. The nurse from the surgery center just called to make sure I'm doing ok. Sorry if I'm rambling a bit; I'll blame it on the Percoset.

Yesterday was a pretty good day. I spent most of the day on the couch resting with my shoulders and knees propped up with pillows. I stopped taking Percocet yesterday afternoon, and have been just on Ibuprofen and Tylenol since, at least as far as pain medication. I took a shower today and washed my hair, which was heavenly, but I was exhausted afterward. My husband and I trying to get the binder back on after was pretty hilarious, but we got it done. I took a sneak peek when everything was off, of course. I really like the boobs, but I am concerned about how the TT looks. There is a crease down the middle that wasn't there before. It is so deep you can't even see my BB. I am hoping this will go away as the swelling goes down???

Your shape is looking good, the crease is probably a temporary side effect of swelling + trauma + the tight garment. Great news that you moved off the narcotics so soon. Take care.
Thanks for sharing your photos. I can't wait to see your results. If you want to see other members getting MMs around the same time, I suggest adding your surgery date to this calendar. Best wishes!
