There are many women that would tell you that their biggest joy is their beautiful children. What they won’t tell you is that they are less than thrilled with what carrying their children did to their bodies. Many are too ashamed of feeling this way about their bodies to do anything about it. They will try just about everything under the sun,Tummy Tuck – Good for Mommy Articles dieting, exercise, even slimming outfits. While diet and exercise is a great way to lose weight sometimes it’s just not enough. So what are these women to do, a tummy tuck might be the way to go.


Why is a tummy tuck the way to go? You can diet and exercise till you’re blue in the face. The saggy pouch on you abdomen is most likely not going to go anywhere. This is because the skin and muscles are stretched out during your pregnancy. The more pregnancies you have the more stretched out those muscles and the skin will become. Once a muscle is stretched out like this it’s almost impossible to get it to tighten back up.


What happens in a tummy tuck to reduce your stomach area? Your doctor will make an incision on your lower abdomen. From here he will remove excess skin and fat and then repair the stretched muscles. If there is an abundance of excess skin a second incision around the navel will be necessary to remove it all. After the excess is removed and the muscles are repaired and sutured, your physician will close the incision. If you’ve had a c-section your doctor may be able to incorporate that scar into the incision from the surgery so that you will only have one scar.


Yes, there will be a scar, but if your physician is good, the scar will be minimized and fall as close to the pelvic area as possible. You won’t walk out of the surgery looking like a new person but within a week you will begin to see the results of the surgery. Within a few weeks you will have a whole new you. You will have your pre-baby body back.


Having a tummy tuck can make you feel better about yourself. You love your kids without a shadow of a doubt. Sometimes, though, mommy has to take care of herself by making herself feel good, like you did before your little angels came into your life.
