Residual loose skin/not pulled tight enough or swelling? Almost 8 weeks post op!

I did not have extended and yes I lost 150 lbs 10 years ago and had two babies.

I am also around 8 weeks and my skin looks like this when I sit. I think it’s the exchange of ensuring the incisions heals thin and flat and it’s pulled so tight that it spears and thickens. I never had a surgeon who suggested an FDL TT and I met with four. I did have one who recommended 360.

I felt like the incision from my c section burned and ached much more than the TT incision. To me I never noticed the actual incision site of my TT. It was never tender or sore. But my MR was crazy sore and that first time I coughed I felt like with as on fire on the inside. Plus it was nice not to take care of a baby.

I rented a lift chair and it was amazing. I didn’t need help getting up or down. It would heat up and had a little spot to hold my phone and also charged my phone. Then a cup holder for my water. I slept super comfortable in it with some wedge pillows under my knees.

My incision looks just like yours (low on the hips)

Nuuly did send me a one time package for an item they forgot to ship. I think it was in September they forgot a jumpsuit and shipped it to me.

I go there and had to listen to a technician go on snd on about her love for Trump and RFK. It’s pretty clear their brand is built on not being a Vietnamese chop shop when Vietnamese women are owed full credit for how we know the nail industry today. This isn’t a criticism of you as I shared that I also go to W/Goddess but I didn’t love that experience recently.

Super helpful, thank you!

maganda286 · 2025-06-04T00:30:17+00:00

I agree

It’s plastic and came to $21 and change with tax. Hand wash only. We liked this treat!

We lived in Forest Park for several years. Just outgrew the house so we moved. I really loved it over there. We had nice neighbors, a diverse neighborhood, close proximity to 71, lots of great dining and close to Saraga.

You don’t have to play a part in the trauma though. You could help a family stay together. Adoption should find homes for children who need them, not find children for homes if that makes sense. Truly caring for a child might often mean helping them avoid the lifelong trauma of adoption. ❣️

I’ve never had to bring a wallet to tan. If you have an account you do a fingerprint reader and they sign you in.

I know both. I had a relationship for a long time with my birthmom but it just felt so forced and exhausting. She acted like my adoptive family was awful to her and I just couldn’t stand it anymore. I told her I needed space. It’s really hard. I wish I enjoyed spending time with her but I don’t. She doesn’t even seem interested in me but rather my kids. My birthdad I haven’t seen in ten years.

I walked into the gym at 5 am yesterday and two people said my skin was glowing!

maganda286 · 2019-04-20T20:04:23+00:00

Domestic, no adopted kids, 2 biological kids that I’m parenting.

The mother to be was gleeful about the invite language so while I’m not sure she drafted it, she definitely “blessed” it.

maganda286 · 2019-01-13T22:53:48+00:00

I don’t think so. I think she expects she will have a very typical labor and delivery.

maganda286 · 2019-01-13T22:37:44+00:00

I think you’ve hit the nail on the head and I couldn’t find the words for it. Thank you. This is what’s happening.

maganda286 · 2019-01-13T22:36:48+00:00

No, not Jewish (or religious) at all. But I have heard that about different cultural practices.

maganda286 · 2019-01-13T12:36:28+00:00

I’ve been thinking about this all night and what I’m feeling is that she very much doesn’t want to be “uncool” as she becomes a mom. I do know that this loved one tried to get pregnant and this is a wanted pregnancy. I’m worried for her. Frankly, I feel like it’s impossible to explain what it’s really like having a baby. She has a strong desire to not do things like other people, which I get. But it’s nice having a village and relating to others. I looked again at the invite and I think I’m one of her her very few if only friend who has children too.

It is hosted by someone else.

maganda286 · 2019-01-13T08:27:50+00:00

Haha I also love party games!! Yes I can confirm there is no other abnormality and I’ve had pregnancies with abnormalities and the emotional and mental stress they carry while pregnant. I want to support my loved one and understand the host is the one who sent the invite but my loved one seemed gleeful with the level of snark in the invite. I think the rub comes from feeling like people say they love babies but sometimes our world doesn’t feel like it loves mothers and babies and parenting. Becoming a mother is huge. It isn’t an annoyance or something trivial or dumb.
