29 Aug Having Kids After a Mommy Makeover Surgery
While babies are truly wonderful, it’s known pregnancy takes a toll on the body. The stomach expands to accommodate a growing baby, and once the child is born, you lose the weight and are saddled with excess skin. Not only that, but the breasts start to sag as well, especially if you are breastfeeding.
Fortunately, a Mommy Makeover can help you get your body back in shape. Ideally, this series of procedures should be done after you’re done having kids. However, more and more women are having the procedure done and then continuing to have more kids. Let’s review a few facts.
Mommy Makeover First, Kids Second
Many women think they are done having kids, but sometimes life has other plans. Occasionally, these women divorce and end up remarrying and decide to have more children with their new partners.
Ideally, you should be completely done with kids before having a Mommy Makeover, but it’s perfectly fine to reverse the order and have kids again. And rest assured, there are no safety concerns of which you need to be aware.
Yes, a pregnancy can impact the result of your Mommy Makeover. If another child is possible within the next few years, it’s recommended that you postpone your surgery until then. However, if you’re pretty sure that another pregnancy won’t be in the picture for at least 5–10 years down the road, then you might want to take advantage of a flatter tummy and perkier breasts now. Just know that you may need a touch up afterward.
