A mom of 3 (5 pregnancies) finally getting the courage to get this done. Excited but nervous. I am so thankful that I have found this site. My first pregnancy caused all of my lose skin and stretch marks. My self esteem really took a downfall in the last few years due to some personal issues but it's time for me now.

Ur day is approaching quickly!! I know I asked about how long I was gonna b there and about my pain meds cuz and how to get in and out of bed and stuff like that. I was fortunate that my nurse had a tummy tuck done before so she was easy to talk to. They shud send u a packet home I know mine did...I got 3 days to go and I'm just keeping things simple as far a supplies go. I have my Bromelain and Arnica supplements, my prescriptions, and tank tops..I don't see needing much more but I guess we will see lol

Oh and I did get some Milk of magnesia..can't forget that!! But I'm only having the tt ur having more done so u may require additional supplies

Yeah people that I know who have had TT say not to forget the milk of magnesia or miralax

It was pretty good. Got all 8 prescriptions!! Wow that was a lot. All my directions to follow from now to then.
Took photos and then while getting measurements ended up deciding to do my inner and outer thighs too!! Figured why not, already going to be there!! Lol.
Nervous and scared though

Nervous
Well got all my pre and post surgical items ordered and/or delivered.
Got on scale and saw that I gained 8 lbs in last 2 weeks. Been trying to lose before surgery next week!! Frustrating.
Getting nervous about it. Reading about what various people have gone thru and some seem to breeze thru and others seem to have had a rough time. Hope mine is fairly smooth.

Thanks!! I am like totally freaking. Keep going over my lists and like do I have this, did I get that.... I'm working half a day tomorrow.
Have to make sure I use the hibicleans tomorrow night and Thursday morning.
I've got the nausea patch, plus a strong med, and some others.

Almost that time . You seem very organized and prepared , this will be easy breezy . I know the tummy tuck is fairly major compared to lipo so I know there will be some ups and downs but you can believe is his work and your final result will be out of this world
