After having two kids who are now 35 and 30, I am finally going to get the tummy tuck I've wanted for over 3 decades. Due to financial reasons I never even thought I would be able to afford. But thanks to my mom and my hubby (2nd husband) it's going to be possible. 55 days and counting. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I wake up at night thinking about this surgery. I'm on this site every day just reading and getting lots of great tips.

No. I don't have any lumps. I did have lymphatic messages like 2 months after surgery and that helped smooth out these hard little lumps I had. As to dog ears, I can really say that it's not that noticeable.

...even though My Surgery is 37 days away (who's counting lol) I saw the doc today. The first time I saw him was back in November and I wasn't too sure whether I was going to do it or not. So after carefully thinking about it, I went ahead and called in December and gave my deposit. I didn't set an actual surgery date till March. But anyway saw home today and asked a zillion questions. I just wish it could be done tomorrow. Lol. The assistant gave me the rundown of the dos and donts and said she would call my prescription in a week before. The doc also said for me to sleep on a recliner. He highly suggested it. I have a reclining sectional but I don't want to be resting in the middle of the living room. My mom is flying in a couple days earlier and I'm sure my family will be in and out and when I feel tired, I want to get comfy and try to sleep. So that's my assignment tomorrow, to check rent a center to see how much and if it's available.

Check out medical supply companies. I'm renting a recliner and one of those hospital tables that easily moves in and up and down.

A recliner will be nice to have even though you won't be needing it for long. I didn't have one and made out fine without it although there were a couple of times when I wished that I had one. This is an exciting time for you and I can totally relate! Most tummy tuckers have excellent results and few say it's not worth it! Good luck!
