5 weeks and feeling better everyday!
$14,440
Haven't updated in a couple of weeks so wanted to send a couple of shots... last week I swelled up... I was very concerned but I had my period so I waited that it all went down and it did! This week I'm feeling great... boobs don't hurt, the tummy is very tender and it does hurt a little but I'm not longer taking pain killers so it is not that bad!

Totally worth it!
Ok, haven't updated in a while... it has been a hard ride, up and down and the pain is still present. Having said this, I had a ventral hernia repair with muscle repair and tummy tuck, plus breast augmentation! Need to give myself a break and let my body heal. I do have a 2yr and a 4.5yr old to chase after as well so recovery was always going to be harder. I'm starting to straighten and swelling is going down but I'm very tender. My upper abs hurt the most and haven't got sensation to my belly button section yet. My breast and nipples are also tender. I took some photos this morning and I was pretty impressed with the results! Only 3 weeks after op and I never thought it could look like this! I'll let you judge the results ;-) (ps. Belly button is not what I hoped for but compared to before tummy shot I'm extremely happy)

Look great! How was it with a 2 yr old? I have one too and dont know how he will react to me not picking him up and only dad doing it.

I totally understand and I felt the same way...I was very lucky and left him at my mother in laws for the first 1.5weeks. My daughter is 5 and she is great. I felt horrible but I Don't think I could have done it with both kids around...Considering he never stayed before he was great. When he got back he didn't understand at first then he saw my bandages and made it all "real" for him and every time
I said ... "mummy can't pick you up I have pain" he was ok. Good thing is that he now got to trust my husband doing things for him as before he would never even let his dad hold him. Sometimes kids need a bit of "separation"... good luck with it all !

Good idea, I was thinking the same that he may need to stay at my in laws a bit so I can heal. Were you couch bound the entire 1.5 weeks?
I agree - I thought too this may help my son rely on daddy and not just mommy for everything

Yes, for the first 1.5-2 weeks I was on a recliner day/night. Your going to need lots of help and support in those 2 weeks. Use any help you can get .I actually stayed at my mum's with my daughter. It wasn't easy but It's all worth in in the end...

I haven't told anyone other than my husband about my BA due to judgement from others in my family. However I only told people I was getting my hernia fixed and it was more serious as my doctor was sewing my stomach muscles together. Did you tell a lot of people?
I'm hoping to get a little help from my mom here and there but hoping my husband pulls through for me

I told people about my hernia and muscles and only a couple of my closest friends and immediate family about my breasts. With clothes on you can't even tell, it's very in proportion plus I used to wear extra padded bras. Even if others find out. Who cares... it's about you and how you feel. I was very down about my deflated breasts and stopped even getting undressed in front of my husband. This is about you and if people want to judge, let them! They will probably judge regardless about flat breasts anyways... everybody I told was very happy for me and said couldn't believe I didn't do it sooner

Thanks for the encouragement DebbyF! Yes, I didn't want to tell my sister or want my sister to know because she still makes fun of me for wearing super padded bras all the time... so hopefully won't be able to tell as I wanted to be very conservative.

Glad you have good support! I also manage a department so I didn't want to have everyone talking about my new boobs.
I'm booked in with Dr Kalus on 20 July and I'm super excited! Its also comforting to see the outcome of his work from pre to post surgery. Can I ask how many cc's were transferred into your breasts?
