Should I get a Tummy Tuck? I am planning to have a child in 4-5 years.

I am 22 years old and I have a three year old boy.  I have tried working out but my stomach still looks horrible, I have a lot of stretch skin and stretch marks.  I want to get breast augmentation and liposuction combined with a tummy tuck.  Is it a good idea if I am planning to have  another child? Even though not any time soon maybe in five more years and I don't car if I have to get a second tt. after.  Please tell me if I am making a good decision and what the effects can be. If I do get a second tummy tuck later, how would it look? Would the second tummy tuck lock completely flat?

If you're planning to have another child, then I don't think its not a good decision. Your breasts may also get affected when you have another child.  It is always advised that you should undergo such surgeries after you decide not to get pregnant anymore.  Though the decision is still yours. :)

In my opinion, I wouldn't waste my money, if your going to have another child. do things naturally, working out and eating right.
