Just back from OB/GYN

I feel a little bit better about my umbilical hernia and torn abdominal muscles (I can't think of the clinical term right now). I need to lose the rest of the baby weight and then see a plastic surgeon about fixing the hernias and then giving me a tummy tuck. My Dr. told me that most women that get the hernia are short/petite and relatively skinny before getting pregnant. I also asked to confirm that it is just a cosmetic problem.

Also, he said that constipation after having a baby is normal since the hormones are still more than they ever were and will continue to be that way. Fabulous. I guess I will have to up my consumption of prunes and fiber.

The ones prunes are really good.  They're in a tall clear tube and I think sun sweet makes them.  Sorry to hear about all the stomach troubles
