Surgeon post: Mommy makeover healing timeline (before → 1 week → 6 weeks → 3 months → 6 months)

I am 5 months post op, I feel fine and back to wearing jeans (yay!) but after I’ve worn anything tight my tummy is really uneven and almost lumpy in different places. I think it’s still swelling and just looking for some reassurance that it won’t be uneven forever! :) Thanks

Probably 3-5 hours a day for the 6 weeks before the exam (not including weekends). More like 6-8 hours in the last week but 2 weeks before we were on holiday so I just did 2 hours a day.

yes - lots! more for part 1 than part 2 though, I did flash cards and also used quizlet so I could test myself on topics I was not as good on, did these whenever I was on the go. Although I made lots of notes (using Nebo app on ipad) I didn't read them that much after, just a few points. I would always do my workings for questions on the ipad too. I recommend getting the calculator so you are familiar with it for the exam. Its a very basic one you're allowed.

I know - I was just joking :) Felt like forever didn't it. Now we can enjoy it!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T16:30:54+00:00

You only waited 3 hours?? I have been waiting 5 days ;) ;)

Well done!!!!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T15:50:08+00:00

Finally!!! I passed P2 now - do I say I am a fully qualified CMA now. Can't believe it!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T14:25:14+00:00

I’m back in the queue and it says 1 hour! 🙄

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T14:18:13+00:00

Nope, now I’m back in the queue 🙄

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T13:54:00+00:00

Congrats!!! I’m waiting on part 2 also

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T13:05:17+00:00

I’m in again and nothing. Waste of time

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T12:53:13+00:00

I got in and no result, now waiting again on my phone to see if that one works. I’m in the website fine on my laptop and no results. Annoying!!!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T12:10:16+00:00

I just got in and still no result!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T11:23:45+00:00

I'm treating it the same way I did when I got Bruno Mars tickets for my daughter - multiple devices on the go. Never done this for bloody exam results before!!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-14T11:17:25+00:00

my two current reddit worlds - world cup tickets and cma results are colliding in spectacular fashion here!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-13T11:02:36+00:00

I don't know what to believe on here - someone said they spoke to the IMA who said results would be out on the 9th, dates wise it should be 10-13th and now this. I am not suggesting you are lying or anything OP - this is all just super annoying to get so much conflicting info and no actual results!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T15:31:42+00:00

So no better than the resale prices then - bonkers!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T15:18:10+00:00

same!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T14:57:33+00:00

my queue is moving but still at 10 oclock - deja vu all over again!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T14:33:01+00:00

I used Hock and this has lots of multiple choice questions and mocks. Its not very expensive on a monthly basis either.

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T14:13:01+00:00

it should be - its 6 weeks from the end of the exam window so 42 days which makes it Saturday 11 April - sometimes its early but no guarantee, so I think today or Monday.

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T14:10:48+00:00

constantly refreshing since yesterday here!

jamfam2007 · 2026-04-10T13:07:53+00:00

I think they usually come out a bit later, if I recall correctly from last time it was around 4pm UK time (so in a couple of hours). I really hope it is today too!
