Ready for a tummy tuck!
After two children I am so ready. I had a consultation with my doctor and schedule my surgery 6 weeks from now. I am a little nervous because I still have a little bit more weight I would like to lose before the surgery. I will upload pictures soon.

I went for my one week postop appt today. Everything looked good, they took my steri strips off, and when I got home one of my areola was puffy! It's not nice and flat like the other one, I'm kind of upset, is a puffy areola normal???

Thank you Jesus! I made it. I'm bleeding a little...
Thank you Jesus! I made it. I'm bleeding a little at the drain entrance,is that noacermal? I did not take the anti-nausea medicine I haven't been nauseous. As of now I feel good pain, not really pain more like discomfort is manageable. Keep getting sleepy! Oh and they look lovely not a B cup that the Lord, they r swollen so I will probably be a D or large C.

WooHoo, Blessed! Glad to hear from you! A bit of bleeding is normal, but if you are soaking a gauze pad you should call your PS. It is totally normal to be very sleepy for awhile as the anesthesia stays in your system for quite some time. Rest when your body tells you to, as that is one trigger that your body needs to spend its energy on healing. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress!

I just read my previous comment and start laughing at all the grammar errors!!! For the next few days please work with me.....lol. Iowa, it is a small gauze that soaked up the blood, but has eased up some. If it continues of worsens I will definately call. I can't figure out how to post picutes.....I will trh again later.
Did your PS say anything about it? Is it red or warm to the touch? Are you running a fever? If you are concerned I certainly wouldn't hesitate to call the PS or an urgent care clinic. While it could be swelling, I believe it is never wrong to go for reassurance. Good luck!
