Hi all, I've booked to have a tummy tuck Thursday morning. I have muscle separation after gestational diabetes and I've tried physio, pilates, tupler technique and mutu but it's still very wide so I've finally decided to have it fixed. They'll take away my excess skin and shelf while they're in there so thats a bonus! Paying privately and have chosen my surgeon after two other consultations.
Feeling quite nervous and a bit teary today, I've never had a general anaesthetic and I have read a lot that it's very painful afterwards.
I've had two c-sections, one was horrific and one was a dream so I know I can live through the pain but worried about a long hard recovery. I'm 35, in good health and a normal BMI so hopefully I have a good chance of things going well. Has anyone done this? What was recovery like? Is there anything I can organise in advance to help make it easier.
