6 months post op - and just had a baby! (pics)
WORTH IT$5,700
Okay! So as promised, here is what my belly looks like today, 4 days after giving birth. Everything seems to be going back into place, definitely have a few pounds still to lose but overall, I’m very happy with how intact my stomach stayed!! No loose skin, and my muscles appear to have stayed together without separating. Will update again in a few weeks or so to show how things look lost baby. But I figured if anyone was interested in a TT but not sure if they wanted babies in the future, I’m here to show an example of what happens. I certainly didn’t plan on meeting someone new and wanting another baby but I’m so happy I did! Life is too short - do what makes you happy. Cheers!!

Giving birth after a tummy tuck
So 6 years after my tummy tuck I decided to have another baby! I came back to my RealSelf to update everyone on what happens to my belly after giving birth so, as promised, I’m here to show you! I gave birth to my beautiful new daughter yesterday at 39 weeks and 1 day pregnant. I gained about 30 pounds in total. My belly now is still going down, but seems to be fine otherwise - I don’t think I will have any loose skin or other problems like stretching of muscle but we will see once the swelling goes down and my belly gets back to normal (: I promise to post more pictures later but right now am about to go feed my newborn. Happy tummy tucking! xxx

6 years post op.. and 34 weeks pregnant!
WOW time flies!! In the last several years my life has taken major highs and lows but after a divorce and then 2 year abusive relationship, I’m happy to say my life is better than it’s ever been before... I am engaged to the absolute most wonderful man of my dreams, my kids are going to be 12 and 8 this year and I have an 8 year old step son, and am currently 34 weeks PREGNANT with my fiancé’s baby girl! I’m so happy and my life is so fulfilled. But anyway! I thought some people might be interested to know, what happens if you get pregnant AFTER a tummy tuck?! So here I am updating this old blog to show you all the real deal. I will continue to update during the rest of my pregnancy and afterwards. I did contact Dr Rizzuti once I got pregnant to ask, how will this affect my tuck?? His nurse told me that as long as I don’t gain too much weight, my stomach should be okay. I guess we will find out! So far, have gained 30 lbs. here are some pictures of my current pregnant belly and what my scar looks like. Feel free to ask any questions!!
