Getting back to real life and sometimes pushing myself harder than I should but I haven't done any irreparable damage.
My entire incision is finally closed and starting to fade. I will start scar treatment with in the next few weeks. I am debating starting the treatment after my 2nd surgery, on Nov 10th, So I don't cross contaminate the new incisions on breasts and arms.
I have zinging pains like a hot needle being plunged in to my hips, butt and thighs every so often, Dr says it is the nerves waking up and nothing to worry about.
Still have bouts of bloating/swelling but as long as I use my compression all day and watch my sodium intake it isn't too bad. I do give myself a rest from the binders and shapewear at night and have found a great postpartum brief, from Leonisa on Amazon, that I can manually adjust with velcro to tighten or loosen as I need to. I do still prefer pretty tight compression, it makes me feel really secure.
I think I am now to the point of having to take control of my abdominal destiny and start sculpting my stomach how I want it, the Doc can only do so much!
Hope this is helping someone out there. I will continue to update. I may find a way to connect this review with my next 2 procedures also so you can see the complete transformation.

8 week pic of open wound on back. I forgot to add this pic with update. It is looking so much better. It itches like crazy though!! Dr. Bohley gave me a second tube of Silvadine cream at my last appointment and I just keep using it on the wound 2-3 times/day.
