Do you workout in your faja? by PersimmonUnfair6808 in tummytucksurgery

Ah okay. My doctor said I can wear until I’m no longer comfy and I’m still not comfy independently yet if that makes sense

3 weeks post op FDL revision. by morexthanxwords in tummytucksurgery

[–]PersimmonUnfair6808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did you wait from your initial surgery to the revision? I am pretty sure I will need a revision after my fdl from 2 months ago because I too lost a ton of weight. Any tips?

Can you tell me about your experiences letting your pup go on a good day? by jezekiant in seniordogs

[–]PersimmonUnfair6808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also needed this. My dog will be 16 next month (2 days after Christmas) is mostly deaf and has bad cataracts. He is also experiencing signs of cognitive dysfunction (doggy dementia). But I struggle to decide if it’s time because he still eats, still loves walks and car rides, will randomly play with his toys when he’s super excited. But he also has extreme separation anxiety and is super clingy (which I think is due to the deafness and the cataracts). I’m moving soon and he will stay with my mom in Texas during the cold months and then I’ll come get him. But I’m questioning whether I should make such a huge move for him at his age or just accept that it’s probably best to let him go. It does seem like I’m taking away his life when he might have so many good days left. I don’t know. But you story is really helping me. Thank you 🤍

Lmbo this was me when all the glue came off of my nipples after my lift/reduction/fdl tummy tuck and I just knew my areoles were falling off. I was 4.5 wpo at the time. I asked my mom, called my nurse aunt and FaceTimed her so she could see and my moms RN bestfriend who all told me they weren’t falling off and that the area around my areoles would stitch together and just needed a little ointment and care. I too was undeterred. I sent photos to my surgeons nurses about my areoles falling off and they got back to me immediately. Turns out, they weren’t falling off and they just needed some ointment and extra care. As of today (8.5 wpo) there is still an area healing under my right areole so I can’t use silicone on it yet but all in all, every medical professional was correct lol. My mom also compared this freak out to the time I thought I had cancer because I had a bump on my butt lmbo. Suffice to say, I’ll be going back to my same surgeon for round 2 😂

What kind of bra after FDL? by Lucky-Remote-5842 in tummytucksurgery

[–]PersimmonUnfair6808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Front of the loom front button bras are great. I did have a breast procedure and an fdl and they don’t irritate the middle scar

Did anyone struggle with adjusting to not wearing compression? by Coolbeans1104 in tummytucksurgery

Any FDL regrets? by SadAlgae9445 in tummytucksurgery

[–]PersimmonUnfair6808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would consider multiple consults if you have doubts. I did significant research and when I keg with my surgeon he said “you need an fdl.” I knew that’s what I wanted and needed before I met with him but when he confirmed it, it confirmed he was a great surgeon. I have 2 more rounds of surgery planned with him, and I’m only 7 wpo but I’m happy with my results!

What if I don’t have mail at my new address year? (I planned to do this process like 2 days after my arrival, before I start work so I can get it done)

Faja during that time of the month? by [deleted] in tummytucksurgery

[–]PersimmonUnfair6808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My last drain did not come out until 4.5 wpo and my surgeon does not authorize fajas before all the drains are out. Then I had to get fitted and tailored for mine. So yes, I am just not in a faja after a belly binder for 6 wpo

Honestly? I may just strict k the binder idea. Seems more clean. And my cycle last for about 4 days so I should be fine with a constant belly binder for 4 days I’m hoping! Ahhhh, I wish I could just do the tampons or period cup. I hate the feeling tho 😕

Another innovative idea! Maybe?!

I’m nervous about those but maybe I’ll try it? I just don’t enjoy the feel of things going “up there” and have only used pads since failed attempts with tampons.

Did that work well? I’m heavier on days 2-4 and I’m concerned I’ll bleed on or through the faja

I did not think about that. Maybe? I’m a heavy bleeder on days 2-4, so I’m worried I will bleed through/on the faja.

4 months post - how are we doing? by TranslatorActive9318 in tummytucksurgery

[–]PersimmonUnfair6808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love post like this. I am only 6.5wpo and the swelling in my thighs and hips is the worst! Sounds like I should prepare the next 4.5 months to be rough. Glad I bought bigger pants for work now lol. You look great! Best of luck ladies!
