So Nervous and Scared but Want the T.T. Done and over with

I am going in for a tummy tuck on august 09, 2010. my pre-op is july 27, 2010. i am having mixed feelings about the surgery. i just gave birth to my beautiful son 8 weeks ago and I am tired of having this gut. I always wanted the surgery but I knew that I wanted one more child. now that he is here.... I am ready, or at least I think I am. I guess I better get ready, cause the big day is coming. need some reassurance though please offer any advice espcially if you have used this Dr. to perform T.T on you. need some feedback pleeeaase. THANKS

hello, everyone my surgery date was prosponed till august 20th because i came down with a bad cold. now I have 11 more days of worrying and it is driving me nuts!!!!. at least i have more time to prepare. welp august 20th will be here soon so i quess I will do as much preparing as I can. just to add ...... this site is wonderful. thank you all for your support as I prepare for my big day.

here is my update. my surgery is friday august 20th a general surgeon will be coming in to repair my ventral hernia and my PS will then do the TT. I am still feeling mixed up. one minute I am excited, and the next minute I am terrified. The outcome better be worth all of the stress I am going through right now.this has been an awful journey so far because of the depression and mixed emotions I am putting my self through and i have not even had the surgery yet.I just PRAY that all goes well and smooth. With that being said i ordered a lift recliner that lifts you up and down from the floor i rented it from rent-a-center so my husband would not have to help me everytime i need to get up. he is gone have enough on his plate. i got the idea from wacole who is also a realself member. ( THANK YOU SWEETIE) since i hear a lot of people complaining of back pain i got me a walker and tomorrow i will be getting one of those elderly toilet seats you know the ones that sits up high so you dont have to bend down so low to use the bathroom. i got me some button down shirts and some drawstring pants. My mother will be keeping the baby for the first three days and then she will keep him in the mornings all the way till the evening (which will be about 8:00am till about 8:00pm.) my husband will pick him up in the evenings and attend to his needs at night. i got the baby on a firm schedule so he has been sleeping through the night since he was 1 month old. my mother-in law will be helping out prn also. I have had other surgeries but this one is taking me through a loop mentally.... I am still just scared..... was anybody else experiencing extreme anxiety?
