Swelling starting to subside
WORTH IT$7,000
Hips and pelvis area are still really swollen. I wish I didn't delete my before photo! Still need to exercise to get in better shape, but I no longer have that hanging belly after 2 c sections! Blisters and all of the other redness and irritation from the tape are also beginning to go away :) was able to go to target today for back to school shopping, but needed the cart for walking assistance.

So this picture was taken a few days ago. The blisters are from this medical tape I bought at Walgreens. I had a serious reaction to them. My 2nd drain was also removed. Also still really swollen.
So I am in law enforcement. I am now 2 weeks post op, and scheduled to return in 2 weeks. Is that enough time prior tt ladies? I wear a bullet proof vest. Duty belt with taser, firearm, handcuffs, radio, etc. just the thought of going back makes me a bit nervous after this procedure and don't want to rush it!

He had me take one big breath in and told me to let it out hard and fast, and I didn't feel a thing :) I must be allergic to the medical tape I bought from Walgreens. My hips are breaking out as well as below my belly button, I have 2 huge blisters :( no more of that. Just leave the gauzes over the drain sites and calling it a day. I went 4 hours without pain meds and drove myself to the farm store to play my numbers. It was very weird, since I haven't driven in over a week. I took it very slow people were probably cussing me lol. Good thing I live in a rural area, so traffic is light. Yesterday, going to my appointment and another errand I got
Very nauseated with the movement while my husband drove. I had to hold my stomach as every bump was uncomfortable.
If I can offer any advice to help anyone considering this surgery to get through thr first week, it's to have magazines and Netflix, or anything you can stream shows and movies. I finally watched sons of anarchy, although I am
Only in the 2nd season, it has helped pass the time and boredom. I will post incision pictures when the skin reaction from the tape goes away.
