7 weeks update
So I began slowly running again this weekend. I’ll be seven weeks post op Monday. After my run I feel a little bloat or swell as u say but it’s not too bad. Mostly I notice I get swell under my scar like above my hoo haa! Sucks! I do notice that I have stretch marks for under my belly button and if u look closely my belly button is kinda weird. I’m pretty sure it was from the umbilical hernia repair though. Regardless of it all I’m very happy with my results so far. Will it change any or is this the point where it stops and this is what i will look like? How are all of you ladies healing?
Drain out!
Today is exactly one week and one day! I went for my post op and I had one drain removed. I was hoping for both but I'm sure it's what is best. I had heard so many horror stories about the drains being taken out but let me tell ya. It was nothing. Honestly didn't even really feel it. May just be that my doctor is so gentle but it was a smooth transition. He checked my incision and said I am healing well and that I should keep trying to stand more upright. I don't have anything in my belly button to form it but he assured me it was fine and cleaned it out. Ladies I'm so happy I finally did this. Thank God for watching over all of us. Uploaded my last drain on my right side and a picture of me just cause I'm so happy today ???? happy healing ladies.
Hunched over
