I don’t see anything wrong with a little nip tuck here and there. I think it’s a personal thing.

I’d love to get a mommy package! I’ve always been thin, but I have that mommy belly that I can’t get rid off. I’ve tried exercising, it doesn’t matter. It causes clothes to not fit right. If I had the money, I’d go. Not sure what I’d tell the kiddos, but I would most likely be totally honest.

I don’t see anything wrong with getting something done. I don’t think it would effect kids either. Unless it was all the time, like those people that are addicted to surgery.

I think that no matter how hard you try, everyone has some body issues. It can’t be prevented in my opinion. Of course it can be made worse, so there is a fine balance (like everything else in parenting, right)

If you’re considering a tummy tuck close your eyes and imagine this.

A surgeon takes your child and slices him/her in half, next they remove a hunk of skin and fat, finally they pull your child’s lower half up like a pair of pants and sew them together all the while hoping there are no complications.

Now, unless you have gained and lost 150+ pounds it’s unlikely that your tummy tuck is anything but cosmetic.

I dare you to love yourself as much as you love your child.

I think this is a positive trend. A woman should always feel like a woman, a desirable one. If childbearing has caused some damage – it should be corrected.

I used to be against cosmetic surgery, but after having three kids, one set of twins, I would be up for a little tummy tuck! Not for the stretch marks (those are battle scars and i love them!) but for the saggy flappy skin on my stomach. Its grody looking. If I had the money that is.

I recently did a post on something similar. Becoming a mother has helped me embrace my unique beauty..every time I look at my pale, blond little boys I fall in love w/ myself a little more.

Surgery that altered my face would seem kind of wrong – I wouldn’t want to alter parts of me that I might have passed onto them.
