Surgery completed

I'm 33 years old and mom of 5. I began working out in 2013 (I only had 3 kids) and was able to get my belly as flat as I could with a 6 pack but still had the extra skin, so I always knew I would need a tummy tuck to fix that problem. I noticed the muscle separation but didn't think much of it. In 2015 I had my 4th child. In 2017, I gain some weight and looked into Lipo because I thought I could deal with having the extra skin. With 2 consultations they explained not only the extra skin but the muscle separation. I looked into it briefly but knew I couldn't really afford it then after seeing the quotes. Found out I was pregnant with baby #5 two months later. Earlier this year in February, I decided that I'd have the procedure done next year for my 35th birthday, gift to myself. During quarantining, I decided to do alllllllll of the research I possibly could and took advantage of the virtual consultations. I had money saved and thought maybe I should just do it this year since we're stuck in the house. For me, this is the perfect timing to do it. Kids at home, I'm at home, so I can recover and don't have to worry about moving around, taking kids back & forth to school and activities and going back to work after 2/3 weeks, etc. My surgery is scheduled for August 10th and I've decided to start my journey because I want to help others with their decision as others have helped me by sharing their journey! After having quite a few consultations, I decided to go with Dr. Jejurikar.

I’m in route and beginning to feel nervous. I’m praying over the hands of my surgeon and anesthesiologist!

I’ve made it out safe! Thank God! I’ve been home for a few hours. Been having muscle spasms and those don’t feel good at allllll! The left side of where my incision is has been the most painful since I left the hospital. I’m looking forward to feeling better as far as pain goes.
