So here I am, turning 31 in 2 days. I've endured almost 5 years of infertility. Finally, I got pregnant but miscarried twins. I was able to get pregnant again and had my beautiful little boy who is almost 3 years old. He needed a sibling and we tried to have one more. Instead, we got two! I am 4 ft, 11 in, started at about 110 lbs. I carried the twins until 36 weeks with a 35 lb weight gain. I was as round as I was tall! They are now 11 months old. My belly now looks like I'm still pregnant, except for all the hanging skin everywhere. I use to be very thin and slim but not anymore! I wish to get a little part of my body back and not be so pear-shaped anymore. My surgery is only 2 weeks away. I've already done my consultation and pre-op appointment. I will be having an extended abdominoplasty with muscle repair and umbilical hernia repair. The doctor also wants to do an inverted T incision, which I'm a little scared of. But, he said it would provide me with the best results. I've read that this is usually done for those who've had significant weight loss, but I have not. I guess here goes nothing!!! I will put photos on tonight.

So I didn't get any photos put on, yet. Hoping to do that tonight. I tried to do them myself but failed miserably so I have to get my husband to help.

I am getting pretty anxious about the whole thing. Every night after I crawl into bed, I can't stop thinking about it. I hope this is normal. We are now T - 10 days. Yikes! I went to Walgreens and apparently they haven't had any prescriptions called in. I guess I will contact the doctor's office tomorrow. I didn't mention it before but I had c-sections with all of my kids.

Can anyone provide me feedback about the vertical T incision???

Pictures are on. I also forgot to mention that I cannot work out because my diastasis recti is so severe and my back hurts constantly. I wish I could lose 5-10 lbs before surgery. Hoping that eating right will help. I can't wait to get a personal trainer after my surgery is over!

Stay focused on your diet and you will get there.  This is all a process well worth the efforts and you will be happy in the end:)

I have included a link to some great information on the T-Incision.
