Month-ish
It's been around 1 month and things are looking good. I'm finally not sore. I would say I definitely felt some sort of discomfort till at least a month which surprised me. Im still fairly numb in the areas but slowly that's improving. I can tell there is still a fair bit of swelling especially in my lower tummy. It's very firm under the skin still.
The skin is slowly tightening up. I was just approved for physical activity per my nose doctor, but i still have a broken foot so I'm doing as much as possible to get active and tighten everything up! I'm also watching my diet and doing meal orders to keep me on track.
I ordered a waist trainer that I wear a few hours a day (it's hot!). The office girl recommended it. Can't hurt to keep everything squeezed and tight.
I have my followup pictures end of july so i anticipate that is when i can expect a fair amount of normalcy/healing.
The scars are so tiny you can barely notice them. And I'm feeling ALOT better in my clothes but haven't gone down a size as he anticipated..maybe later?
Will update after checkup with him! But so far so good
Pictures definitely don't do it justice.

Day 6&7
Things have been pretty much the same. My pain is stagnant at a very sore workout with sharp pains with certain movements. Ice still feels great. I'm sticking with just advil and tylenol. My body in general is getting sore too with just lack of movement. I want to STRETCH.
Very minimal spotty bruising on my abdomen but stull very localized to my lower belly/ thighs from dependent/gravity. Definitely over the pain at this point. My skin gets a LITTLE less/numb tingly every day
Yes I am still wearing the spanx he gave me 24/7 besides washing. I understand compression is necessary and it actually feels better. During the day I put my tight leggings on over it to add to the compression. Definitely still some swelling as expected. Ill include pix I took of 2 of my incisionsz the rest you really can't see already.
I definitely hoped/expected to be less sore by now but...hopefully soon!

Day 4 and 5 -6/10&11
Pretty much same stuff..things are feeling more on par with a hard hard workout soreness these last few days. I'm moving around much better and tolerating more..basically just on advil and tylenol. The girdle feels wonderful and ice packs are my best friend.
I finally was able to shower full body today and got some more pix. And noticed LOTs more bruising. The hole in my perineum area is causing fluid to collect there and bruised as i was warned. I've tried putting underwear under the spanx now and icing my vagina to prevent that. My thighs also have huge sore bruises. My abdomen feels smaller for sure and less numb but still definitely numb. I've also been itchy more.
