I have had my hernia since i was born but had no complications from it until i had kids. Their ages are 13/11/&16 months. I knew if i had to have the surgery i wanted to wait until i was finish having babies because i wanted a tummy tuck. I just want the huge Hanging jelly belly and my love handles gone. Anything else will be a bonus. I love my body and skin and personality but my belly always puts a damper in everything im trying to do. "As if it has its own personality". I found an amazing doctor who does amazing work, so i cant wait to see what magic she can do to me.

set surgery date
So its official I paid 95% of my surgery cost and have my pre op date for March 28th with both surgeons and then my TT on 4/10/14 My PS and I decide that we would also have doctor Simon, general surgeon do the hernia repair along side. That way my insurance wont have so many questions about timing and what they are paying for. I personally feel it keeps financials lines clean. Im so excited but also question if I can or will have my house and family in order and simmered down enough or if I will have to put them out for the first few days.

You will do great. My advice to you is, clean your house real well right before surgery so it's one less thing to worry/ think about for a couple of weeks. And make like a weeks worth of food for you and your family so you can all just heat in the microwave. Being organized beforehand will make your life easier at least for the 1st week so you can concentrate on yourself. Good luck!

Thank you so much. As a mother that is my biggest fears because im non stop with all the house duties. Thankful my mother sister and mother in-law will be taking care of things for me so all the responsibility isn't all on one person. Looking forward to a little down time. A full time mother, fiance, college student, mentor .... This time is my time and im so glad for it.

I live near you and have been looking for recommendations for PS. Thanks for your experience with Dr. Matthews. Good luck, I look forward to your updates!

Yes she is a very calm pleasant lady. Also the nurse that is available to ask medical questions and the secretary who dies everything else are so on point. I get an email or phone call weekly to check up up date or confurm or question things its like they know exactly how much assistance is needed through the process and make aure i have it before i figure out the questions to ask

Grateful counting down to my pre op
So i must say that i love the surgeon and surgical group im using. Never in a million years did i think i would feel so warm and connected when doing this but i am so glad it is. So i have 26 days until my pre op appointment. Definetly have some things to get organized leading up to it. Excited and both nervous! Its almost surreal but my dream come true

Thanks for sharing the start of your journey (: I look forward to your updates. I have 2 more weeks and have started to clean already. I started to buy products that others were recommending, but I got so over whelmed and haven't bought anything else. These ladies stories have been such a help! Best wishes.
