You got an epidural instead of being put to sleep?
Thats awesome.
That is my biggest fear, is getting knocked out...scary.
Can you request that for a tummy tuck?

it depends alot on the doctor most doctors prefer general because they dont want you to be awake cause you can have a "nervous breakdown" but i actualy felt pretty good after they gave me sedatives your whole body and mind relaxes your are awake but kind of drowsy.

i wouldnt think it would be that much different than a c-section. Had one with my second child.

I would hope the recovery was pretty much the same as a c-section.

I want to see pics!  

Show us pics!

Also i would rather have a scar than the "butt stomach" i currently have lol

awesome!
