Now on the flat side!! U.K. 28 Tummy Tuck with MR and Lipo to Flanks-1 C section ***Still flat after a twin pregnancy 6 years l

Thought I'd do a final update, because I ended up falling pregnant with twins! The tummy tuck held and I still have a flat stomach. Which is not what I thought would happen! I wasn't that big through my pregnancy considering these were two babies, and I was worried they wouldn't have enough room to grow. My smallest twin did stop growing, and was only 4lb, but that could be a total considence, though I do wonder if it's because she was so squashed.

My stomach is just as it was before the pregnancy, and I have zero new stretch marks. If it did ruin my stomach, I wouldn't ever go through the surgery again as its utterly brutal, but I'm so happy my stomach is still flat and I'm glad I went through it.

Merry Christmas ladies. Thought I better write a review whilst I remember. Not too much has changed. Still swelling above the incision throughout the day and worst at night, scar is very deep in colour but I've read that's normal at this stage. I have done a few gym classes (finally) it's absolutely in Clubbercise (dance/cardio) actually quite nice having no wobbly stomach. I did Body pump (with weights) not so clever after months of nothing, I was in agony! Stomach wise though I was ok, I noticed trying to do a push up and plank was a lot of pressure on my core and so took it really easy doing a few lady press ups. The ab track at the end I just did a few reps per move as it's really nerve racking once you start using them again. I'm still glad I got it done however, still unhappy with the 'lady bulge' where I go in at the incision and out at the mons, have included a picture in a red dress where it shows. I'm hoping I smooth out but I finally see my surgeon for the first time on Jan 7th and so will see what he says, I've read they can Lipo the area, also still have the dog ear, not visible from the front but very pinch able once sat down. I've booked a last minute holiday for 3 weeks time where I will be wearing a swimsuit only so the scar isn't exposed to the sun. I would say don't do what I did and stop exercise all together as I am so unhappy with the rest of my body and even have a pouchy stomach so I really need to start trying harder. Will update after I've met with my surgeon, will be the first time I've seen him since the day of surgery x

Hi ladies, sorry it's been a while. I took pictures a week or so ago to update and my phone reset and wiped everything!
So, nearly time to meet with my surgeon for three month follow up. Haven't seen him since I was passing out post op! Haha, though I should probably get that apt booked...
I am at the stage of wondering if I am still swelling or if I'm gaining weight. I haven't worked out in over 4 months now after having to cancel my gym membership. I am hopeful that once I start getting back on it that I will change my shape slightly. I wore jeans this week which is a rarity and I still got a roll of fat above and below the waist line. When I said down I had a huge hump above the band and that really disheartened me, I thought rolls would have gone. My upper ab area bulge is still a concern for me. Had it since waking up from my op but was always hoping it was swelling. It possibly still could be as if I pinch the skin it's still tender. When I lay down now I don't sink under my ribs so actually look less slim but it's from the muscle repair, everything is where it should be I guess. I am applying silicone gel to my scar daily or using bio oil if I'm in a rush. It's quite dark lately which I know is normal. Still slightly concerned with the pinching affect right side end of scar. Don't think it will settle. Still disheartened of how high my scar is especially at the sides, high underwear doesn't hide my scar let alone being able to wear a bikini. No way I could hide it and high waisted bikinis do not suit my frame with bigger legs. If I wear Spanx I love my stomach but I stopped wearing those weeks ago. I do love that I can't distend and look pregnant with my bloating anymore, that's definitely the biggest perk. Not regretting doing it but not estatic now thing are settling. It still protrudes above the scar just like how it pooched over my csection scar so hoping that settles too. My upper abs still twinge if I get myself up using them so wouldn't feel comfortable working them at the gym yet. Still don't have much feeling around the stomach, only at the sides. I will continue to be patient and hopeful and I'll update again after I've seen my surgeon x
