Tummy Tuck, 130 Pounds, 37 Yr Old, Mom of 3
After my first baby 13 years ago my skin on my stomach sagged and was loose. I had a spiderweb of stretch marks in the middle of my belly as well. After my next two pregnancies over the next 5 years my skin still sagged and the stretch marks were worse as they had stretched out into wider scars. I had diastasis - a 4 cm gap in my a muscles as well. So anytime I was bloated I looked newly pregnant. No amount of physio could fully repair that damage.
I am a pretty fit person so this loose skin and muscle separation always bothered me, as I felt like my stomach didn’t match the rest of me.
I waited many years to do the procedure as I did not have support from my husband to do it but he finally came around. I went with the same surgeon I used for my breast implants and was very happy with the results.
Our plan was to fix my diastasis, pull the skin down as much as possible and cut in a new belly button.
I had a full mental breakdown 3 days post op when I took off my binder to have a shower and saw loose skin and what looked like my same belly button. I called the office and asked for the notes to get a confirmation from the nurse - did I get a new belly button?! She said yes..
I had another look today on day 5 and I don’t think I do, I think they messed up. Trying to stay calm and optimistic about it as maybe that was a decision that had to be made during surgery.. but I am wondering why did I do this? I went in there with our plan in mind and expected a different result.. maybe it’s still early days..?
I see the doc on day 8 post op (July 16)
