Anyone go up in sizes after TT?

I had a tummy tuck 2 weeks ago. The DR took 12 pounds of skin and fat off. I was a snug size 8 before the TT. At my post op visit today the surgeon told me that I am not that swollen. How come none of my clothes fit? even the 10's are snug. Wouldn't you think that I would go down in sizes or at least stay the same? anyone else have this happen. Is it possible the surgeon is wrong? That maybe I am still swollen and that I will return to my preop size? I have gone down like 6 pounds on the scale. Please help I admit I look better naked and I can't wait for summer to wear tankini's but I am concerned about everyday clothes. As I have little legs and no butt. the 8's were a little roomy in those area's of I go up to a 10 or a 12 I will look so frumpy. Please someone reassure me this isn't the end all!!!
