Hi! I'm 5ft 6 145lbs 31 year old female. I have two kids ages 6 and 3. I breast fed both kids. I have a ton of stretch marks! My goal is to have most the stretch marks gone and wear a bikini again! I gained 50 lbs with my fist child and 40 with the second. I have since lost all my baby weight and close to my pre pregnancy weight. But my body shape is completely different! I feel like a big saggy stretch mark! I am not confident in my own skin! I have been wanting a tummy tuck an breast augmentation for years! I'm excited now that it's only 17 days away!

You will do great. The first few days are the hardest but I honestly feel better once I stopped the hardcore pain medications. My brain isn't all foggy and it's not messing with my emotions so much.

The only thing that I would recommend is a recliner. That's what saved me. It's a life saver for the first few days. Also lots of pillows. One for behind your back, one for under each arm, one for your head and two for under your legs haha.

Haha! I plan on sleeping in the recliner for awhile. I just hope it's comfortable enough!

Also, how is you son doing with this? I have two kids ages 6 and 3 and my 6 year old is super emotional. I'm worried this is going to be hard on her to see me in a lot of pain:(

My son is ok with it. He's 4 almost 5. I just told him that I was having surgery and I was going to be sore for awhile. He has been great with helping me. The couple of nights that I had bad nights and was throwing up I just had my husband stay with him in our room and have a mouse night while my mom helped me that way he didn't see me. But really I haven't been in "pain" I haven't taken any pain meds for two days now. I'm just sore. Like my whole body is just sore and tight. I only slept in the recliner for like three nights and I have been back in my bed with my son ;) (yes he still sleeps in my bed) haha ever since. I just keep a pillow between us so he doesn't whack me.

Everything went good. Not too much pain just very sore. I get pretty dizzy when I get up to walk around.
May 11, 2016
How exciting! Keep me updated on your recovery :)

Good morning. I slept pretty good last night. I got up every three hours like the doctor said to do. The pain is much worst today! My stomach incision hurts pretty bad when k walk. My boobs just feel like they are super engorged. Going to the doctor today at 9:am.
May 11, 2016
I'm sorry you are hurting. Are you staying up on your pain meds and taking them every three hours? My incision would burn when I would get up and walk.
May 11, 2016
Yes we set the alarm for every three hours. Went and saw the nurse today because the doctor will be out of town til Monday:(they said everything looked great. The gave me another type of pain meds and we will rotate them. My boobs look huge! I sure hope they go down a lot!
May 11, 2016
They look really swollen. Mine went down quite a bit. I got 495cc. Yours look about as big as mine after surgery but I was starting off with like nothing.
May 11, 2016
How long did it take for the swelling to go down? I feel like something is stepping on my chest!
May 11, 2016
Oh no. Seemed like mine really went down after 3 to 4 days. At a week the swelling was pretty much gone.
