I had twins 15 months ago. I am down to my pre pregnancy weight and fitness level, but I have loose wrinkly skin on my stomach that isn’t going away. I hoped it would get better with time, but the skin was stretched so much, that I finally realize it’s here to stay.

I know I should be proud of my body and all it has done for me, and I am in many ways, but I am seriously hung up on the loose skin. It makes me feel incredibly insecure in the bedroom, and I’ll never feel comfortable wearing a bikini again. Lately I have been considering getting a tummy tuck when my twins are 3 or 4. Part of me feels so incredibly shallow and selfish for even considering it, but the other part of me just wants to feel confident again. I want to accept my skin, but every time I shower, get dressed, have sex, etc. I’m stuck staring at something I hate seeing. I think my “lack of control” over changing it is driving me crazy.

Have you ever considered a tummy tuck? Has anyone had one that is willing to share?Or does anyone have advice on accepting/loving postpartum changes?
