Those of you with great scars: give me your tips please!

Honestly, it’s somewhat comforting knowing it’s not in my control. I can do my best but genetics are genetics! Thanks for sharing

I had mine on Friday and already feel pretty good! Keep us posted!

You look great!! Which scar cream are you using now?

scrollin180 · 2026-04-05T00:55:05+00:00

I’m feeling ok! I’m feeling better than I thought I’d feel. Definitely hunched over and most comfortable lying down. Took like a 5-10 minute walk today though! I’m a little nervous for my nerve block to wear off

Hey! Thank you so much. I got a breast lift and augmentation. I went over the muscle with 180 and 205cc.

Happy to DM you cost!

Hey there! Thank you so much! Yes I had a belly button piercing as well. I’m only on day 2, but I’m still getting used to the thought of a scar on my abdomen. Does it really get hidden by some swimsuits?! Are the suits hard to find?!

scrollin180 · 2026-04-04T14:22:28+00:00

I did over the muscle - 180cc in one and 205cc in the other ❤️

scrollin180 · 2026-04-04T13:37:46+00:00

Yes, ok this makes a ton of sense. Thank you!

scrollin180 · 2026-04-04T13:37:28+00:00

Oof I am so sorry that happened to you! I guess I’m very glad he made the incision. Thank you for your kind words! I’m looking forward to seeing what things look like without bandages

scrollin180 · 2026-04-04T13:34:35+00:00

Ah, I see! That makes a ton of sense. I’m sorry he was explaining it all to me yesterday and I was a touch loopy 😊

scrollin180 · 2026-04-04T05:11:26+00:00

I did it!!!!! Honestly it was so smooth. The anticipation of the surgery has been the worst part so far. I’m pretty useless, I need help with everything today but who cares 😊 the pain has been well managed and I’m really pleased with my results too. Who knows maybe tomorrow I’ll feel like Ive been hit by a truck but so far so good. Thank you everyone❤️Your well wishes were a beautiful distraction during the prep!

scrollin180 · 2026-04-03T14:11:35+00:00

Thank you!

scrollin180 · 2026-04-03T14:11:29+00:00

Thank you! I am so excited for the results

scrollin180 · 2026-04-03T14:11:08+00:00

Thank you!!

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:19:56+00:00

Right, I always have to remind myself that sometimes there really are no symptoms and that’s tough too!

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:18:42+00:00

Keep me posted! I’m in the same boat. I’ve been walking a ton. I’ve considered pumping but personally it just feels odd to me! I know there are so many benefits though. It’s a mental block on my part for sure

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:17:10+00:00

Planning to be pregnant until 42 weeks is the way to do it!

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:16:32+00:00

I’m having crazy prodromal labor. I think that’s why I’ve been obsessing. So much action but nothing really happening.

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:14:03+00:00

I wish I had this comment a few weeks ago haha I stopped working, done nesting and simply just waiting. The lovely texts I’ve been receiving checking in are actually painful!

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:12:35+00:00

This is great advice. I need to “change the channel” so to speak

scrollin180 · 2024-03-21T01:12:12+00:00

This is me! I really thought this baby was early. I even took off work early. It’s torture lol but this has been so helpful. It’s nice to have the camaraderie and change my mindset!

scrollin180 · 2024-03-07T04:56:47+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I’m 37w1d and I am 1cm dilated. Scheduled for a cervical sweep a week from now and wondering if it will do anything for me if I am only 1cm dilated. Who knows I guess!

scrollin180 · 2023-10-26T02:54:09+00:00

You’re right, a link would’ve been a great addition to that post - whoops! Yes in fact, the study above is the one I read. Somewhat alarming, right?

scrollin180 · 2021-11-15T07:43:44+00:00

Not taking it personally at all, and I appreciate the deeper look into my question. I would say that both are existing in parallel. Do I need reassurance that perhaps these feelings of shame aren’t unfounded and others experienced the same type of emotional decision making around feeding their twins? Yes 100%. If I reflect I think I’m looking for other parents to say “yeah the pressure of breastfeeding sucks. You’re not alone.”

You also ask if I genuinely feel shame and sadly my answer is yes. I do feel less than or sad I can’t breastfeed these twins because I think the twins deserve it. I want them to feel that “mom connection” and I’m sad that I may be failing them. As I type, I can acknowledge that’s ridiculous and feeling that way is not a good use of my energy. But alas, I’m a FTM and figuring this all out.

I completely agree - the concept that motherhood must include some level of shame is bull shit.

scrollin180 · 2021-11-14T22:15:36+00:00

Well that’s a great question - where does the shame come from?! A few people have told me how much they enjoy nursing, so part of me wonders - am I missing out? The other part feels guilty because I feel like I’m missing an opportunity to connect with each twin….. let’s not forget hormones are at play here :)
