I had my surgery (TT and BA) today. I've taken it super easy today and plan on to keep it that way for the next 48 hours. I have taken my pain medication like clock work and I'm not hurting just slightly uncomfortable. I have to go back to the doctor in the morning for a post op visit and I look for to seeing the incisions and my new breast. My husband has been the best nurse and has taken amazing care of me. Yes it's painful but not unbearable. Walking to the restroom is very slow and hunched way over. One day at a time but I feel like im doing a great job!

Do not no matter what miss your pain meds on day 2. You feel like you are on fire. I took milk of magnesia and gave myself cramps and diarrhea. Lovely. Still in good spirits. I'm spending 90% of my day sleeping. I still think it's very similar to a c-section recover. My skin itches and I can't wait to see my boobs/flat stomach, come on Tuesday!!!!!!!

Today is day 3 post op and I woke up feeling significantly better than any other day since surgery. I can get myself in and out of bed, potty myself and walk/stand up right for brief periods of time. Don't get me wrong I'm still tender but moving is easier. Drains are in and remind me To go slow. I still haven't seen the outcome of my surgery but I believe my 5 day post op dr visit will will allow me to do so. I can't wait to see my new boobs and the incision from the Tummy Tuck. I have decreased the amount of pain meds I'm taking, and substitute OTC meds when I can. Over all still so happy with my progress and Ill update again with photo after my dr appt on Tuesday. Happy healing!!!
