3 months post op and pics!
I am feeling great at this point. I am over 3 months post op, and I feel awesome! My stomach still has some areas that are less in sensation, but no pain whatsoever. I am full on back to my aerobics, jazzercise and I feel great while doing that. I am going to jazz 4-5 times a week and running 20-25 miles each week. I have no pain at all. I still have not done crunches, but have done some "lighter" ab exercises without any problems. My scar is fading nicely, but I will still have to see if I want the scar revised to remove the vertical aspect of the scar! It's not bothering me much at this point. It does show in low rise undies and swimming suits! I am absolutely happy I had this mommy makeover done! No regrets!
As far as the boobs, I can not tell anything is done. My new implants seem like me, size is about the same even though they are 50 cc bigger! The only difference is that the silicone ones I have now are softer and they move more.
Summer has been so much fun with family and friends. We have been swimming ALOT, so feeling great in a suit has been awesome! I will include some "pool pics" to show you all a bit of our lives this summer! Happy continued healing to all of you beautiful ladies!

4 and 5 weeks post op!
I am sorry I have not posted for a while! I have been busy getting back to normal life! I started walking at 3 weeks post op, very slow but about 2-3 miles per day. I was very sore, but no "pain". I am up to a 4 mile per hour pace this past week, & I'm up to 4 miles a day, and I feel great now with the walking! I just can't wait to get back to running! I'm hoping to do that and Jazzercise next week!
I went back to work last week, I am a chiropractor, so I am on my feet all day adjusting patients. I LOVED going back, but I'm not going to lie, I was very tired and sore the first week. I felt much better this week at work....almost normal!
I am so happy I did this. I feel sooooo much better in clothes (and naked with my hubby!). I no longer have to try and find clothes to hide my tummy! That part is great.
The scar from TT is really flattening out, and the edge of the scar where my drains were has flattened and evened out. Both sides are symmetrical now.
The only part I might have revised is the vertical part of my incision where the old BB skin is. That skin was just so stretched out before surgery that I don't feel it will flatten!
I still swell at the end of the day, but it is getting less severe! I bought an XS compression garment from Leonisa.com that I wear to work. I did not feel I had enough support for work from just my spanx. So I wear spanx everyday that I don't work, and I wear the TIGHT CG on the days I treat patients. It seems to provide great support! Also, I have been sleeping without anything on my tummy, and it has felt great.
I have been massaging the girls, and they continue to soften. My hubby says he loves the new "softer" ones since I got silicone this time, but he does'nt play with them much yet as he is afraid he will hurt them! The incisions under the breasts have started to fade. I don't have any complaints about my breasts. Love them and for reference I got 450 HP Natrelle style 20. They do not look fake at all....at times I wish I had gone bigger and looked into the UHP!
I will have my hubby take some pics and I will post later!

2 weeks post op
So not a lot has happened this past week, just trying to get back to "normal life". I have been driving this week, and doing some light housework around the house. I am able to sleep on my sides or back now using the wedge pillow, which has been nice! I still get tired and worn out easily, but I am getting more and more strength back.....slowly! I was able to go to church last night and sing!
I will not go back to work next week, because my job is very physical. I am hoping to go back when I am 3.5 weeks or 4 weeks post op. I just don't want to mess anything up!
I have been trying on more of my swimming suits and clothes, and I was a bit bummed as one side of my scar must be a few mm higher....and that side sticks up above my swim bottoms and undies. When I am naked, you can not really tell one side is higher....but I'm just down about it not being "perfect". The only other thing I do not like is the skin where my old belly button hole was. It is saggy and it sticks up above my scar. I'm hoping this will eventually flatten. Still glad I did it as the diastasis and hernia were bad, just a bit bummed.
I still swell the most toward the end of the day, and I feel very thick when I get swollen. It is the entire abdomen that swells, lengthwise and width, from sternum to pubis. It does not hurt, just feels tight! I have not taken any Tylenol or other drugs since 1 week ago. I really don't hurt, except for when I cough or sneeze, or if I overdo it.
Hope all you RS ladies are healing well!

Provider Review
I really feel my doctor is a true artist. He made a lovely low, symmetrical incision with my tummy tuck. My belly button is cute and little, and my BA rocks. He is very talented. He also listened to my concerns beforehand, and was very quick at responding over the weekend! I feel he truly is the best around!
