Preop text and postop three months

  • 13 Sep 2018

Almost 3 months post operative

  • 13 Sep 2018
I am almost 3 months out from my surgery. I just have numbness now in my stomach from my rib cage down to my incision line. The incision line on the left may need revised. Also there seems to be a lot of swelling still around the incision. I noticed it in formfitting dresses my stomach is completely flat but then there’s a small swollen mound Which is obvious in some clothing. I’m hoping this improves. Overall I’m thrilled that I did the surgery. It’s hard to remember what I used to look like. It’s not perfect and to be honest my body was never perfect but it is much closer to where I was before babies!!

Five weeks postop

So I really turned the corner of the pain has totally taken a dive. I now only experience pain if I coughed sneeze or laugh too hard. It is still numb from my belly button down but that is to be expected. My drains have been removed and no fluid collections have re-accumulated. My scar is getting smaller. I still have swelling below my belly button and I will be happy when that finally goes away. Not sure how I feel about my belly button but overall so far I am thrilled!!!!!! I’m so happy I did it and so glad it’s behind me!!!!

So I am having my surgery on Tuesday. I have done my phone consultation already . I have to fly in Monday to Miami for my preop. Feeling nervous and dreading the recovery. I have decided I’m just going to get it done. I spoke with the doctor on the phone and he was very nice and answered my questions. A good friend of mine already had her breast aug with him and she looks amazing… I’m sure I will be fine. I definitely have preop anxiety . I have had three C-sections and after my last baby was born, my abdominal muscles did not go back like they should have. I had my youngest two years ago and I was over 40 years old so I’m sure that had something to do with it! I’m going to post my preop pictures. Rating the doctor with five stars so far!
