Well I have always been a petite person( 5'1, 125 lbs) but after having three kids( 9lbs , 7lbs8 oz., and 9) my belly got the worst of it. My stomach was stretch beyond belief and even though my last pregnancy was 10 after my second birth, I still could not tone my saggy, wrinkled skin. So, after much talk and debate my husband and I considered a tummy tuck( thank God he seen things the doctor way). Of course the pregnancy caused muscle separation and I was left with saggy skin from gaining too much weight with my first born( went from 109 to 180). But I lost it all by the time he was five months.
My self esteem became so low and I have never taking off my sleeping tank during intercourse with my husband. But I know with this tummy tuck I gain confidence in my body and feel comfortable about the skin I'm in. Don't get me wrong I love myself and I thank God for my three kids. And yes stretch marks are a sign of the mother tribute, but I'm doing this for me....because I deserve to be at ease and not worry about holding my belly in 24/7. Besides the extra poking belly just doesn't fit with my skinny frame. I anyways, I have learned so much from this site over the past few weeks, meet a friend( who encourage me the most ) and finally feel as if my belly will be toned.
Right now I'm very excited and have been searching online none stop for weeks. I have at least two moths before surgery and I have a thousand and one questions to ask but I don't want to bug anyone, so ill keep searching, lol. The doctor said that I'm very petite and that I would get the most benefit from a tummy tuck. At least 95% of my stretch marks will be gone , MR ,and the surgery will take an hour and a half. It will be an out patient surgery. I'm super exited!! THE DOWN PART is that all my summer plans may not take place, with the kids. But then again who says we can't go to Destin for Two weeks And I can relax in e condo while they site see... Anyways I can't wait until the day.
