A Tummy Tuck?

I am totally serious...my belly is smaller after surgery! I know this is gross...but it hung over quite a bit and was a bowl full of jelly for sure, but now that I've had my surgery it's smaller...not flat...but considerably smaller and not as "jolly" LOL I don't know if this had to do with my uterus being attached to my abdominal wall or not...but I can't wait to talk to my doctor about this and see if I literally did get a tummy tuck. Every day it just seems smaller and smaller than it was before I went in for surgery! Woo hooo for me...for sure!

I'm still having ups and downs. Sometimes I feel on top of the world...like I can do anything, but I know it's too soon, and I don't do more than I'm allowed to do. And other times I don't want to move. I feel so much pain and so much pressure....so I don't do anything. I think a big thing is I am still limited because of my staples still in me. I will have them removed tomorrow...and I can feel them pulling and what not. DH cleaned them last night and I had so much burning pain on the incision it wasn't even funny. There are 25 of them...I did have DH count them for me the other day.

Lotsa hugs!

My stomach is quite a bit smaller too. My doc said my fibroid was about the size of a 6-month pregnancy. So, I'm sure getting it out helped quite a bit.

I know how you feel about the ups and downs. Sometimes I feel fabulous and think I can do anything. Then, after I move around for a while, I'm exhausted and hurting. I'm sure this will pass with time.

Mine was quit smaller also. TVH 3/30/06, swelly belly caught up with me 2 weeks ago, don't get discourage if it happens cause I feel it going back down
