Ok, Thank You. I just figured it would be swollen on First day then get better. But its opposite. I put ice on it. Thank You !

hang in there- it gets better in time!

Kitty,

Expect to be swollen for awhile, don't get scared its very normal. Everyone heals differently, and so our bodies changes are different too. I was swollen for many weeks, and bloated as well. You are looking quite normal, LOL

It does get better, hang in there chick...

My tummy looked like that. I looks and feels better today 6 days post op.

Thank You pattygirl!!! Your such a sweetheart!!

Its amazing how different our incisions look..I have 6 and am concerned as to why? and my port is on my right side..it also took over an hour for my surgery which makes me wonder what was going on or if they were teaching someone..ugh.

My port is on the right side as well I have 5 incisions but slightly differently placed. Oh well there seems to be many many differences in the pre-op and post op as well. so I guess the incisions are just another variable.
