34 YO Mom of 2 Under 3, Looking to Get Some of my Body Back - Richmond, VA

Holy Crap it's been three weeks since I've updated! Crazy how time flies! Hope all my fabulous ladies are healing swimmingly! Thanks to those who checked up on me! Where to start? Well I've been doing awesome! Everything is healing like it should. I had my revision today. As mentioned in previous posts I ended up with dogears on both sides so Dr Lynam cut them in his office. For those who have to have one, it's a quick and easy procedure it took about an hour and the most painful part was the lidocaine. Something happened though on the way home because when I got out of the car I was bleeding on the right side. I think my jeans were cutting into the incision or something but we got it under control only thing is now it's super swollen and hurts. I'll be calling in the morning just to make sure I don't need to come in. Outside of that little adventure I'm golden! My breast are falling nicely and are soft and the incisions are fading well. Thanks Embrace! I've transitioned from the silicone strip to the gel, idk if I like it though we'll see if it's as effective as the embrace. I truly hope all the ladies that had surgery around the time I did are ok, I guess everyone's back to life and busy. Any who I'll be sure to post before and afters for my 2 month update! The timing of my surgery was to ensure I was healed in time for my 10yr anniversary trip to Jamaica! I've been buying bikinis left and right. Lol That's 6 weeks away and I have yet to get back into a regular workout routine. Any tips??? I've never been big in the gym type of person but my intent was always to start after I got clearance. Take care!!!

Hi all! So I went back to work this week so it's be completely busy. I've been working from him for the last three weeks but it's a different beast being in the office. I'm feeling good though, in the afternoons I start to swell and ache so I just have to be careful a with all the running around I do. Other than that all I pretty good. I made the mistake though of wearing jeans over my cg and it must have rubbed my incision raw because when I got home it was red and weeping(yikes!!) I immediately cleaned it with peroxide and put polysporin on it and it's cleared up. Just a lesson learned that I may not be ready for my tight jeans yet, back to leggings I go! I don't have another follow up for 2 more weeks so hopefully nothing comes up before then. I wanted to post a few before and afters so you can see my progress. Big improvement in my eyes so I'm a happy girl.

Hiya chicas! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and gearing up for the new year! So at three weeks out I'm still numb from the belly(new one) down. Still some pain at the incision sites. I'm super fine in the am but by the evening I'm still swelling but it's keeping to a minimum. I've been able to sweep, mop and vacuum with no problems. I'm reading where a lot of people had a ton of restrictions like not lifting arms above your heard but I didn't have a lot. What were some of your post op instructions? My next post op is a 3 weeks from now so I guess I'm healing well. Hope everyone is healing well!
