Everything will be fine. I had never had surgery before - or ever been in the hospital for that matter! But it actually wasn't bad at all - it was like time travel!! One minute you're relaxing on a table, the next you're waking up and someone's shaved your damn belly! You guys will do great - be excited, you are taking control!!

Sleevedmedic 59 Posted March 19, 2013 Hahah well if that's the worse thing we have to deal with is a shaved belly then I can deal with that. I guess I could just beat them to the punch and do it ahead of time. Thats the good thing about the drugs they give you to put u out. Makes everything go by quick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makes everything go by quick Seriously that was the worst part for me - super itchy! Don't shave it yourself though, they prefer to do it so that it's the proper length (they don't shave it smooth because they don't want ingrown hairs, cuts or infections around the incisions). They could have at least continued to trim further south, just so things would be more proportionate though! Oh well, at least NOW I can see down south and do it myself!!

Sleevedmedic 59 Posted March 19, 2013 Yea I am sure that it was itchy. I guess your right I better leave it to the professionals. So I don't do something they don't like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleevedmedic 59 Posted March 19, 2013 I am sure that is a plus being able to see down south and not like cutting off your airway to try and trim things up hahaha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
