So, My mommy makeover is next Friday. I'm really excited, but nervous! I'm afraid of what the pain level is going to be afterwards. My nerves are getting the best of me, as I find myself eating more excessively. Not to mention, I am going to start my menustral cycle! Will that be an issue. I'm hoping and praying for a safe and speedy recovery! It's finally time to gain my self esteem back & get my pre pregnancy body back! Any good advice to prepare me for and after surgery?!?!

Today, I had my pre op appointment. Everything was a bit overwhelming. But, I have all of the paper work to go through again. I can't believe that my surgery is 8 days away! It's so surreal. I am a bit concerned with all the medications that are prescribed. But, I know it's for my well-being and comfort. I was also surprised that they have me the arnica as well. I'm really hoping for a safe and successful recovery. My husband is on leave from the 14-26, so I'll have his help as well as my mother in law who is off from the 18-26. My husband will taking night shifts and my mother in law days shift with my 7 month old son. I'm getting silicon implants at 300cc and the tummy tuck with lipo in the flanks. Everything is starting to set in and I'm getting scared. I don't know if I mentioned this, but my husband is totally against the surgeries. I think that his lack of support doesn't help my situation. Alright ladies, I'll keep all of you updated and I'll post before pictures tomorrow!

It's so hard when the husband isn't supportive, though at least he's helping out after surgery. I hope he'll come around and realize you are doing this for YOU and that you deserve. Here's an interesting blog post on spouse's who don't want their wives getting surgery.

Please do keep us posted. And you might want to check out this list of supplies to get for your recovery.

Ok, here goes my before pictures. It's relevant that I have tons of stretch marks, excessive fat and skin on my abdomen and I have completely lost all volume in my breast from breastfeeding. I am anxious to see how these procedures will change the overall look of my body! Here we go, almost a week left until the big day!
