Scheduled for 8/6 for Flatness - Tucson, AZ

I will be 3 months on 11/7. I still have swelling from my navel on down & my vaj is also still swollen. Walking a lot, but after awhile I feel pressure & continue to swell up. Once home & resting the pressure subsides & swelling goes down but not completely one. I have strong pins & needles feelings but not as much. Watching what I eat, drinking a lot of water & watching my sodium intake. Otherwise I am doing wonderful. I know I am not 100%, but I know I am still on the right track & will eventually get there.

I am 7/8 weeks post op. I do have muse spasms which drive me cray. They mostly come while I am in bed. I am walking straight, but I do find in the evening swelling &. Wanting to hunch over especially if I do too much during th day. I still have swelling but not as much as last week or the week before. I wasn't sure what "ken doll" meant, but as time goes by I understood what it means & felt I had it. The swelling in the area has gone down & my PS said it should be gone by 3rd month (we ill see). My incision was made in the area her my tighs meet my body. I am thankful for that. My BB is still healing, waiting or the scab to fall off. The lower part (abdomen belw the navel) feels like it is still stuck to my skin. Initially my whole stomach area felt that way & I guess as time goes on, the feeling is less & less. Still waiting on that waxing in the mounds area, but want to make sure everything is healed & there is no chance of getting an infection due to an area that hasn't healed because I couldn't see it. I still don't have 100% energy but I understand that is part of the process. I tip my hat to the ladies not as far a long as myself that have started exercising. Good for them. I have been using bio-oil & merderma gel like my life depends on it. The end of my incision are still noticeable but the other looks to have blended in & not noticeable. I got a pillow with the arms which helped me sleep in my bed. That's my update till my next PS Appointment which is the end of nov. I do continue to read & post comments. As probably each of us has said, this site has been wonders for me. Sharing & reading others journey has helped. I had days that I actually cried, but because of this site I knew why. Thank you everybody for just being there during all of our times. God Bless each of you.

Has anyone gone from recliner to a bed & if so how did you do it? I've tried to get in my bed but when I lay in a fetal position it feels like I have plastic on my hps. I've used pillows but I just can't get comfortable. I am renting the recliner & they will pick it up on Friday. I bed has drawers underneath, but I do have a step stool. Any suggestions? I am 20 days post op & still slightly hunched over.
