You think fondly of those days when you had a flat stomach. Oh, to just be able to wear a bikini again! You think that those days could never possibly return. Not now that you've had three children – two of whom are twins. You wish that there was some way that you could return to those days when you had a cute tummy, rather than one that sags.
You're birthday is coming up, and you'd like to give yourself a tummy tuck as a birthday present. You'd love it, your husband will love it, and all will be well in the world! The problem is, you don't know how to fit the tummy tuck into your busy schedule.
You're a wife, mother, and professional. Needless to say, there isn't nearly enough time in the day to get everything done, so how might a tummy tuck be possible? The first front to conquer is work job. You've been diligent about always being there, and haven't taken a vacation yet. Yes, it's time for a vacation – one that involves a tummy tuck.
Next, it's time to conquer the family front. Your husband works just as much as you do, and your babysitter is only available a couple of times a week. You've made ends meet by working at home on certain days, but you need time to just relax and recover.
Thank goodness for grandparents. You've called your parents, and they said that they'd be more than happy to take the children for a week or two while you rest. Your husband, chivalrous man that he is, had offered to take care of you when he comes home from work.
However, you're getting ahead of yourself, because while you have found a surgeon, you haven't had your consultation yet! That's in a couple of days, so until then you can start getting things in order, and maybe even work a couple of hours of overtime to help pay for the procedure.
At your consultation, you feel like your tummy is a sketchbook. Your surgeon draws lines all over your tummy, takes pictures, and makes measurements. Once all this is done, a date for the surgery is set. You can't help but be thrilled that your dream of finally having a flat tummy again will be realized in just a little while after the tummy tuck.
The surgery takes a couple of hours, and you wake up about an hour after the procedure is finished. There are lots of bandages around your midsection, and you feel sore. A little while later, your surgeon comes in to visit, and informs you that the surgery was a great success!
After a couple of days in the hospital, it is finally time to take the bandages off and have your stitches removed. Once this procedure is completed, you're led to a mirror to finally look at the results. You're still a bit swollen, but nothing could wipe that smile off your face – yes, you're that pleased with the results! Bikini, here you come!
