28 Yrs Old, 2 Kiddos, Tummy Tuck - Spokane, WA

Work is going well. Not to sore afterwards. I find my swelling is the same all day. I try not to get discouraged from the swelling. I really hope my belly button goes in. My scar is super thin. I'm really happy about that. I'll be putting lotion on soon, my skin is so dry. I was informed to wait until my scabs are gone. I keep thinking it's up hill from here.

Well it's almost been three weeks. I've learned to listen to my body. Swelling hasn't been that bad but I do have some cramping in my muscles. Now that I'm going to work we'll see some serious swelling I bet. I am still very happy with my results. If I had to pick one thing I'm not overly happy about it would be how high my scar sits on my hips. I think I have high hips. I would have to pull my swimming suit up higher then normal to cover my scar. That'll have to be the new norm. I can't lift anything over 10lbs and I helped my 4 yr old out of the shopping cart the other day. I'm wondering if the muscle cramping is part of that. I've been pretty good other then that. I wonder when I can start putting stuff on my scar? I would really like to try the silicone scaraway strips. Any suggestions?
