I'm a mom of 2, and had C-Sections with both babies. I've had the belly flab since my first (he's 12) but never thought I could do anything about it. I've cried and complained over how I've looked for years. So, I finally did something about it! Today was the day!! They removed a little more than 2 pounds from my belly!

So, I've been thinking it would feel about the same as my c-sections, but I was totally wrong! It is so painful, I guess because of the muscle repair? So, will it feel better or worse tomorrow?

Hard to breathe

Day 3: I'm finding it hard to breathe today. I feel like a huge weight is sitting on my stomach. Is that normal?

I still need help moving around, going to the bathroom, etc.

It takes a while for your body to get used to being so taught. I am 10 days post and still very uncomfortable. The pain is way less, now, though. It was a little hard to breathe at first. I would say it started getting better instead of worse on day 5
