Did you cry?! I'm going to cry aren't I??! Should I just start now?

@@Elode i promise you baby girl... it's not as bad as you would think. you survived 3 c sections.... it's the same thing. you can do this and will be soooooo happy you did. I really wish you could stay one night... but most dr. send patients home right after.... I was glad mine didn't. That one night stay was key i think. I can't talk on the boob part, as i still have the ones God gave me... lol.... My husband only had one day with me too... but he didn't want me to have the TT... but i did it anyway... I did have a friend that came for the first night at home and like i said my son and DIL came and checked on me twice a day for the shots. I even lost a few lbs after due to me not having any hunger at all. sleep in the recliner if you have one...get the pads...

I walked like the Evolution man for a while... you know started off all hunched over, then each day i got better and better and more upright...

STOP!!!! watching the vids.... they are scary as hell..

@@Queen of Crop I just read what you posted and i have to say.... a slimmer "kitty" was an unforeseen bonus. I didn't think that when they pulled up... that the kitty would trim down... but it did... I freaked out the first time i went to the toilet and things were not going straight down, but more forward should i say... and now with out the stomach flap.. i can shave kitty without any problems...

So Elode... yet another reason to do this.... trim kitty.. lol

@@Elode Think of it this way. After you had those c section you had three beautiful children, but was left with an ugly tummy. This Time you'll come out of this with an amazing set of boobs and killer stomach.

I've changed my surgery date to April 4th so two days sooner, it works better with my husbands schedule. That will give me a full month of recovery and then I took a new position at work starting March! Game on!!!!

@@Elode You'll be fine! The first couple of weeks are a little rough, but that passes quickly. That's a blip on the radar of your life. It's really worth it. You just can't predict how much pain you'll have, or how you'll feel about it. You might be one of those people who find that it's not that bad. The good news is that you can get relief from it. Even at the worst, most painful days, it was very tolerable when I was still.

When you get to the hospital, look around and try to take in and remember everything. I did not do this for my Tummy Tuck, but I did it for my second stage plastic surgery and it was amazing. It was such a surreal experience! It was such a big moment in my life and I wanted to remember all of it. I wrote about my plastic surgery day if you want to read it and prepare yourself. Good luck!!!
