Mommy makeover with diastasis recti repair - ready to feel like a whole person again
Mommy Makeover w/ Diastasis Recti Repair
I am 5 weeks out from my surgery date and it feels a bit surreal. I've always been thin and unhappy with my small breasts. I really only liked the size when I was pregnant and nursing, which left them even smaller and deflated.
The real motivator is my stomach. I injured my back in my early 20's and two pregnancies left me very prone to more injuries. I've put in hours of PT for my back and pelvic floor (which did help), but I still have a diastasis recti and a hernia, which can't be sufficiently fixed without the muscle repair. I'm 40, done having children, working out, and ready to feel like a whole person again (and reward myself with some new curves)!
Not looking for big boobs - I don't want to completely transform my appearance. I just want to feel great in a bathing suit, tank top, dressing up, etc. I'm scheduled for a full tuck w/ hernia and muscle repair, and am thinking about 200-300 cc's under the muscle.
