3 weeks!!!
WORTH IT$23,000
Yesterday was 3 weeks!! Woot woot!! I decided to go shopping for new clothes and it was weird because I didn't find much, its like I don't know this new body .... but its a good feeling because it has so much improved!!! Before I was looking for baggy tops, that aren't tight around the waist... now it's irrelevant !! Yay!! But it's like I'm not searching the right type of clothes ... and Im now down at least two size around the waist with bigger breast so I just need to get used to it!!!
So yesterday wiped me out completely and by late afternoon I had a sore throat and was so tired and achy. Today I have a cold :( been sleeping and taking it easy and I'm still in my pyjamas at almost 3pm. Half an hour before the kids come back, better hurry!! Hope everyone feels great!! Fall is here and hope you get to enjoy it [RS bleep]

2 weeks and 2 days !!!!
It's been 2 weeks on Wednesday, yay!!!
I've been busy with the kids and I'm back to doing everything, except picking up my baby :( ... But otherwise I'm back to doing all my chores just like before. Im still on leave until mid october. So still time for healing :)
I get help for lifting heavy things like grocery bags but that's about it...I have some pain sometimes before bedtime when I'm tired so I take an Advil. I also take a nap every afternoon because I'm still really tired...
I keep on trying clothes every morning and still can't believe how they fit on me. I had to throw out a bunch of clothes which have become too big for me. And clothes that I never thought would fit again, I can now wear ....Wow!!! Especially low rise jeans and tight tank tops (picture) It's so nice not to worry about that belly and my hernia :))
The only thing I've noticed is that my belly looks nicer if I suck it in. It feels like my muscles are not tight enough... I stil get bloated at night. Not as big as before my tt but still...
I don't know if this is normal?
Hope everyone feels good and healing nicely. Have A nice day lovely ladies :))

I was so happy to see you posted a review update! It will be so wonderful when you can pick up your baby again! I am sure that has been hard - it will all be worth it! I can't wait to join you on the flat side :) You will be over 10 weeks po by then so I will be referring to you to remember how it keeps getting better each week!

Wow! You look amazing! The swelling is to be expected.. ; >( but it's sure better than before, eh? I find I look better sucking it in too... I think our PS isn't a big lipo guy. But you look amazing, so you have nothing to worry about!! How are you feeling? Sleeping well? Another week or 3 and you can pick up the baby carefully, right? I'm sure that's really hard.. Take it slow and enjoy this amazing weather we have been having!

Hello 2me2!! I know it's frustrating this app acts really funny. I'm happy that you wrote because I was thinking about you these past few days... I'm good but I just caught a cold and it feels like I'm aching more than other days...and I'm really tired ...but I should bounce back in a couple of days, i have a question...When does numbness go away? And you started to feel like it was your abdomen again? And are you still tired ? How have you been? I hope you're feeling great :)

Have I turned a corner?
I feel so much better today. It really feels like I've turned a corner:
1) I slept in my own bed all night, on my side!!
2) I only had advil before bed and I haven't taken anything for pain yet it's almost noon!!
3) I drove to my ps appointment and I was fine.
4) I'm standing straighter not back to normal but almost...
My ps took out my stitches under my breast and said I'm healing well. He laughed when I said I was maybe too small. He said: I told you so!
Anyway now it's done and I can't go back so I'll have to appreciate what I have...here's a bikini pic!! My tummy is still swollen...

You look amazing and so do your boobs, very natural looking, he did a good job on what you asked for. I think in time, once the swelling is gone and you are able to get sized and by bras, you will be more happy with your choice, you've got more than you had and that's the main thing huh?
Keep resting and try not to overdo things, you've still got a lot of healing internally to do and the last thing you need is to set yourself back, trust me, I did that after my lung surgery and set myself back months, not days, it was bad. Won't make that mistake again lol! Take care and all the best x

Thanks!!yes Dr S is the best!! I'm so convinced now, I knew it before too but now that I've experienced it and I can say for sure that his technique is excellent. And I try to take it easy but It's a really weird feeling like you think you're ok and you can do stuff normally but you really can't... Like this weekend I went grocery shopping with my husband and the boys and it was so hard walking around the grocery store, it felt way too long ... I was exhausted after...
