Hello Everyone. I have been looking into a tummy...

Hello Everyone. I have been looking into a tummy tuck for about 12 years now. I have three children, all by c-section, and every since then, my tummy never looked the same. After I had my son via c-section, my abdomen area started sagging. As the years went on, they started sagging even more. I even noticed a rash from the sagging skin rubbing against my pubic area. When I would work out and shower, I would have to lift of this fold of skin to clean and dry it. This is so embarrassing. My husband says that he loves me no matter what, but with this fold of skin causing all of these problems, I was wondering if it was a turn off for him.
I am no longer curious to see if I should get a tummy tuck, I SCHEDULED my tummy tuck for March 12. My PS office called and said that they have an opening on March 5, so I did what any woman would do..... I TOOK IT! LOL So now, I am 6 days pre-op. I am so excited and I can't wait to see a flatter tummy!

Good morning ladies! so, I am 1 day pre-op today and I am so excited. I can't wait until tomorrow morning. I keep having these weird dreams about the day of the surgery, and how things will play out. PLEASE tell me that y'all are, or have had these dreams too! I am excited.... my electric recliner will be delivered today. I am at work, so I need to confirm with them the delivery time. I want to make sure that I have someone at the house so that it can be delivered. I have all my supplies on the cart that will be next to my recliner and my bag is packed for tomorrow. I am only worried about the patches of ice on the roads and the streets. Today, I fell on the ice on my way to work, and I hope by tomorrow that things will be cleared up and melted away so that I don't have to worry about falling or using my abdomen muscles to help break my fall.
I have attached the pics of how my tummy looks now. the side view, the front view, and the way it looks when I sit down. Now just so you know, I think I am a master illuminist! I have a way to camouflage my tummy in my clothes, and alot of people do not know that my tummy is a big as it is. I have added some samples as well.

Well, im on my way to the surgery center. I am so excited! All of my closest friends called or texted me to wish me well. I think that once I get there, I will loose all the excitement and become nervous because reality will start to sink in. Well, I hope I am feeling up to posting about my experience after the surgery. On that note, I will see you on the flat side ladies! Donna, good luck today!
