Feeling alot better, but

I'm feeling alot better, but the tightness and swelling is still very painful at times, its almost like I can't breathe sometimes. My baby daughter kicks me in my abdomen when I pick her up usually and I hate it, feels like jabs lol.
It takes about two weeks to see how much fat your derrier will retain, I know I have a dramatic change, I'm considering going back under the knife, but when i think of the pain and swelling, I reconsider lol. I've also gotten a good garment from "lipoexpress" those thangs are soooo good, way better than what they sale at the office, but eBay has a lot of nice ones. I needed one without a latch n hook, and a comfortable one with it also, that's why I got one from lipoexpress and maderna (I believe).

drains REMOVEDDDDD!!!

BrownSuga1
Ahhhhh, I'm super ecstatic that I can now enjoy my new found bootay (with the exception of not sitting of course). I can take a real shower lol.
But, yesterday they actually removed one because I started crying being overwhelmed by the tugging of the drains and other pains associated with the surgery (I know I'm a cry baby at times lol) but they do tell u if fluids accumulate within the nxt follow up then they have to go in with a needle to drain. Yikes!
Yesterday I met Dr. Pascual for the first drain removal, I don't like her cause I saw some of her work, ugh. But hey, she must be doing something right, she been around for awhile with a few offices and great doctors, but she didn't answer all my questions, but Dr. Lagrasso was worse lol...can somebody say DRIVE BY! Geesh, horrible. I had a list of questions, guess "realself" will have to help me in that department! I will be posting pics soon as my recovery flourishes.

How are you feeling now?
September 5, 2013
Like crap. The swelling and soreness has succumbed my body. The garment they have for sale has a zipper and clamps and is irritating the bruises that run down the middle of my chest, so I thought I would sleep wo it tonight and man it's no winning! ; (
