I’m 16 dpo and feeling frustrated and a little down. The first week was rough. The second week I felt hopeful because I was able to do a little more. But now I’m not seeing big strides. I’m tired. I’m swollen and uncomfortable. Went to the movies with my kids and had to go right home after. It took everything out of me. There’s a constant uncomfortable achy tightness that’s always there. When did you notice a big difference in how you felt?

A couple days after surgery I started getting so so itchy and around incisions was very red. Plus I had rashes on my legs and torso. Come to find out I’m allergic to the surgical glue. Have never had a problem before. Anyone else this happen to? And how long did it take to go away? I started oral medicine a few days ago. Also how was your healing after it went away? Thanks!

4 dpo and im miserable in the binder. Im itchy and feel claustrophobic. I just want to rip it off im so miserable. Anyone else and does anyone have any suggestions for making it better?

So my tt with mr was yesterday. Very sore today I looked into the top of the binder to see if I can see anything. But all I see it my upper belly is very round and bulging. Is this normal?

Hi! So I had my tummy tuck with muscle repair and flank lipo yesterday. I’m home and being very cautious but any time I move around I feel it in my core. I never realized how much you use your core with practically every movement! I’m so worried since it’s so early in recovery that I’ll ruin the internal stitches and result. I’m as careful as I can be but it’s almost impossible for me to not use my core! And it hurts when I do! You don’t think I could have done something to it?

Thanks so much. This forum has been amazing with helping me prepare for surgery! Now I just need advice or to talk me off the ledge about ruining the results!

My tummy tuck with MR and lipo is tomorrow. I’m ready to get it over with and start recovery but I’m petrified! Can anyone help me feel a little less anxious? Thank you!
