Oh my!!!!! You weren't kidding! I have never seen a bigger tummy ever!!!! People must have thought you were having twins. Or quadruplets. What a beautiful baby. You must have been relieved when he came out. Seriously good for you momma well done.
I'm 5'4" and was 52" around...we had matching tummies!!!
oh my goodness you weren't kidding he's beautiful I can see why you needed a t.t. hope you are feeling well

You are 5 ft tall and u were 4 ft around when you were pregnant??! Thats crazy!! You had an 11 pound baby and a 9pounder??! Girl you deserve an award. Bravo to you . What a great outcome on your surgery ! Congrats.
Thank you I appreciate that. I am gonna post my prego pic! You will see why I needed it lol!
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?
Oh yes, I still can't lift for 3 more weeks and with a 17 month old it's hard. I can do everything but put him in bed,..so you def need help!!!
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.
***meant bend down. I rely too much on auto correct!!!
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?




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.
