One month update

I can't believe it's been a whole month! I've only laid in bed 3 nights now. I was so afraid at first to lay down, I'm sleeping with pillows under my legs as it pulls my upper stomach. I was cleared to lay down 2 weeks ago, but I didn't think I could get out of bed on my own.
So, my stomach looks amazing. The right side of the incision looks flat and perfect. The left side, not so much though. It's kind of bumpy and sore. Not sure if I have a dog eat forming there. Not sure what that is about. But I'll address it the next time I go see Dr. Young. It's healing nicely. The boobs are dropping and getting softer each and every day. The swelling on both areas are going down. I am still wearing compression garments all day, besides showering. I've also lost some weight. Like 9 pounds! I think it's muscle loss. I am hoping to get back into an exercise routine as soon as I can. Since the muscle tightening I know I can't eat that few extra bites, so that might be why too.
I'm still sad I can't do the things I need to do. I'm not one who asks for help, but I've learned to since the makeover. I'm ready to go swimming! Ahhhh! Lol! I can't wait!
I'll upload some new pictures later.

3 weeks!
Momma'sGotItBackJune 16, 2016
Well, I've made it 3 weeks! I cannot believe it! I'm so ready to be at 6 weeks though. I miss being able to do the things I normally do and having to rely on others for help. That isn't my thing at all, but I'm trying.
I am still loving my results. I'm still doing massages on the boobs and showering every day to wash the TT incision with antibacterial soap. I know it's still early in the healing process, so some swelling is still there, especially in the lower belly. I know it'll take some time for that to go down, so I'm not rushing it. I emailed Kim yesterday to ask if Dr. Young repaired muscles below my belly button, because it seems to pooch out more. She replied back and told me that he did and that it does take that part a little longer to heal and absorb. Thankful for Kim! She is always on it and answers any questions I have.

I meant to say that the marks are from my compression garment and my sports bra I've been wearing.

Your scar looks awesome! What size did you end up getting for the implants?
