WORTH IT
Sooo guys here for my update things have been rough drain wise but yesterday I got my first drain removed ! I’m so ready to see my body in regular clothes here’s a body update ! But feeling wise I am feeling better I do stand up straight I noticed that when I take the binder off even to use the restroom before I shower things feel uncomfortable it’s more comfortable weirdly to be tight in the binder versus not being in it but I’m ready to switch over into the Faja I haven’t been able to yet because of the drains

So Many Emotions & It Turned out Great

I was super nervous to start this process I have three children 5,4 and 10 months but I was so unhappy with my body . I wanted a change for so long but I wasn’t sure if I could afford it or handle it . But I finally decided to do it! I got a tummy tuck so from the very begging ANGIE has been the greatest and so helpful I appreciate her more than words could say ! I had scheduled my surgery and I live in NC so I drove there and stayed from the 10 until the 19
I had my first pre op on the 11 and my COVID test and surgery on the 13th and my first post op visit the 18th I stayed in the hospital the first day after Dr.masri was the best he checked on me was patient and did a wonderful job ! My first time walking wasn’t as bad as I thought but my drains are what was the most painful and not painful bc of them but when getting up I felt like that’s what pulled the most I’m day 9 post op and I think today was my first shower without being in a bend mode so it was less painful my first shower was the 19 and it was really difficult bc I was In a bent position each position especially early morning hurts going from laying to standing or even laying to sitting just felt like I put a lot of pressure on the drain sight the binder was also aggravating bc of my hips so it rode up often I did try to get a faja but until the drains are removed my husband and I are to nervous to get it on bc it’s a very much more tighter way and you have to pull and tug to put on . Walking is getting easier by the day . Can’t bend over and put lotion on that’s a goal belly button looks great too honestly I am still numb in certain areas even still on day 9 I plan to update and put pics on 1 month post op and let everyone know how I’m feeling. Any questions please ask bc I had so many and wanted to know from a actual person what was going on . How it felt . I also was a c section mom .

Yes, the drains are the worst. Atleast I think. Mine were placed on my vagina, right under the tummy tuck line, and oh my gosh everytime I would get up, they would like pull & it was the worst pain ever. I'm now recovering from having butt implants & the drains weren't so bad from them. They came out the bottom of my butt. Lol.

Im trying to go with Dr. Nick! From what you guys are saying I guess the drains are going to be the worst part?
Question?? How many post op appointments did you have? I can't afford to stay in Florida forever. Who's going to take my drains out when I'm back home in Wisconsin?
