Good to hear that your pain isn't too bad, my TT is friday and I'm trying not to get too stressed about that aspect of it.

So you don't have any drains? Wow. Did they do a special technique on you, like the progressive tension abdominoplasty, with quilting sutures? That must be really nice not to have to deal with drains! Lucky! I know I'm going to have probably 4.

Good thinking, looking on craigslist for a hospital bed!!!! I don't know why I didn't think of that. I'm gonna do so right now. I do have a recliner chair that I've been sleeping in for 6 weeks anyway, for my breast lift/augmentation. But a bed would be nicer, if it's cheap enough.

Keep us updated on your progress, thanks for posting

I'm always so delighted to read when someone has less pain than anticipated.  You're doing great and how awesome that your surgeon has a great technique without the drains.  I expecting to have many of them.

YAY on your flat belly!!!  :)
