Hello everyone!! I am a 24 year old with three children (9,4, and 3). Ive been struggling with my weight for the past 4 years :( I have always been very active, but i dont think my body could handle two kids back. I have recently been approved for a tummy tuck and breast augmentation :) I couldnt be more excited!! Is it normal though to feel EXTREMELY selfish at the same time? The past two years it really gotten to me and ive let myself go.. Ive been hiding behind hoodies and yoga pants and i cant take it anymore!!! My surgery date is now April 4, only 42 days away!! Im not sure what to expect though.. Ive been reserching tummy tucks for 2 years now but the close the day gets the more and more i feel like i am never going to be prepared for whats going to happen!!
5 weeks pre-op and I'm already scrambling to get...
On the other hand I'm super excited still. After my third child I had an umbilical hernia. It's freakin huge!! I had it repaired and got a tubal ligation but it came back almost immediately. I'm looking forward to my tummy tuck and muscle repair. I'm also getting a breast aug, which is equally exciting. I can't wrap my head around the fact that I will go into surgery will a horrible hernia, big belly , and small boobs and come out with a flat stomach, no hernia, and big boobs! The mental aspect of all of it is already taking a toll on me. I'm so glad I have a great support system of close friends and family. I'm going to have the hardest time not being able to play with my kids for a few days. Hubby has already decided I'm confined to my room for a week except to get up and walk around every once in a while.
I had sinus surgery a few months ago and after waking up from anesthesia I was a mess. Crying , shaking, and in pain.... I'm sooo worried that it will be the same way this time. I'm trying to be a big girl and not worry but it's killing me already.

The guilty feeling are all a part of this process. That's what moms do...Fret!
This will pass and very soon you will be home recovering with the new body.
