Scars are from pregnancy but not to awful. Still a bit swollen at times, tight and numb but that will take time. Looks great. Dr. Salzman did fabulous!!!

You look great! My date is just a few days away.
Question- pre surgery how far above your belly button did you have stretch marks? Mines are from the belly button down and just wondering if they will all be taken out with the TT.

Thank you for sharing your journey...You did the right thing--hernia all fixed and looking great! God bless you as you recover completely!

Your results are great! I'm considering getting a TT. I have a toddler at home. Did you have help with the kids while recovering?

Should say now I can do everything but pick up (putting into his crib or the bathtub or car seat.... Which is pretty much a lot of what a child needs!) ... The first week I couldn't do anything ... But after about two weeks I could started to been down a little and help.

How is the swelling now that you are at least 1 1/2 months post op? Do you have any suggestions for those of us starting the process?
