Dr Kasden is the man. I am 27 days out. Still losing weight and ready to go!!! He is patient; he is goofy but good. He LISTENS better than any man I have met. His staff is the best. I love being around his personality. I cannot wait to see me results. I am excited and nervous and thankful for Realself.

My husband spent my money for my tummy tuck and wants me to reschedule until January. He tells me this one month before I am due in! I am devastated. Please women out there help me. I can't even look at him but I have twins 10 years old. This seems dumb to him but I know y'all get it!

Hey, I haven't been on here in a while and I wanted to check in on you to see if you still wanted the chair. But i saw your last post. I'm so sorry honey. I hope you two sorted it out. He may be afraid. My husband went to my consults with me and pretended he was ok with the surgery but 1 week before his true feelings showed. He pouted and tried to sabotage my money situation too. At the time I was upset, but after having the surgery I realized he was insecure about how the surgery would affect our relationship. Fast forward to 5 months post surgery and he's elated that I had the surgery and sorry that he ever had doubts.

ok so I started a new job and when I interviewed I did tell them I had a "female" surgery scheduled and I did change it to the best week of the month for my business; but I know I will be out for two weeks. and I know its none of their business but they require a doctors note if I am out for more than 5 business days so what will they say when my note comes from a plastic surgeon????? UGH...but I do have the ability to work from home and after that 5th day and a couple of days of vac I can work from home.....
on a more exciting note.....5 weeks away!!!!! OMG OMG OMG

These docs are used to discretion. I am sure they will find a way. Also just because it is a plastic surgeon doesn't mean it isn't necessary. It isn't any of their business. You told them before they hired you. I am also quite sure you are worth it to them for you to be off a week and be healthy. The notes are usually a formality. If you give it to HR and ask for privacy.....

I agree w mavenhawk. Our company policy won't cover paid leave if its elective. So you may have to work with that.

I went very basic. Only bought sleep wear that would be comfy, extra pillows, gauze, neosporin, advil, yogurt, and protien shakes. I did use a stool for the shower. My doc gave me a list, sure yours will too. I was fine on the potty, but I'd been working out quite a bit before hand and was sure my legs wouldn't let me down. I'd just use your own discresion, everyones different . good luck!

It's getting real now! Unless you have a mini toilet I don't know why you would need a riser. Unless it's just laying around anyway. I don't think they are allowed to ask you why you have a doctors excuse unless you are using short term disability. And plastic surgeon doesn't automatically mean cosmetic surgery. Maybe you have some kind of birth defect that you are having repaired. Mine removed a fatty tumor from my head and that wasn't "plastic" surgery. It's none of their beeswax what your issue is. But it doesn't hurt to get a good story ready and stick to it.
