Day 12 with necrotic belly button

WORTH IT$8,600
This is a picture of day 12 even though I'm 15 day post op. My belly button turned necrotic which was a possibility since i had a previous umbilical hernia. Even with my yucky belly button I am still really happy with my results. Even with the swelling my clothes fit me amazing and I cant wait until I'm fully healed.

So like most women here I was personally unhappy...

So like most women here I was personally unhappy with the appearance of my tummy. I can go on and on about how unhappy I was. Instead I want to share my 3 day post op picture. Words cannot describe the mix emotion that I feel right now. My focus right now is to heal. If you are thinking or considering a tummy tuck you definitely need a good support system. I cant imagine recovering on my own.

I had a tt and lipo and breast lift w implants November 7 w Meger's office too. I'm pleased

Looking good, hand on and things will improve.  The first 2 weeks are the toughest but it will get easier.  Are you getting enough sleep and fluids?

Yes i make sure i drinks lots of water and i never felt so rested in my life. I feel i little helpless because im pretty much laying down all the time. Like you mentioned before the first 2 weeks are the toughest and you are right.

You are doing exactly what you are supposed to be doing right now.  It's all about you and the recovery process.  You are entitled to be as helpless as you need right now.  Enjoy it because you will be back to the crazy schedule before you know it.

Looks awesome! I have my surgery scheduled with Dr Meger January 9. I can not wait!
I wish you the best of luck! The healing process is slow one but totally worth it!
