I get this twisted sense of satisfaction when I see a young celebrity sporting her first pregnancy bump in magazine pics. I think to myself, "Ha! Now you'll see how difficult it can be to recover your figure after gaining 35-plus pounds." When celebs share they "can't wait to breastfeed", I recall how beautiful it was to breastfeed my children, followed by another twisted thought, "Watch out perky-breasted girl, your boobies will never, ever be the same."

Surgical mommy makeovers are getting more popular these days. A full mommy makeover involves a breast lift with or without implants, a tummy tuck and liposuction. These can be effective techniques to restore an hourglass figure often left shattered in the aftermath of pregnancy. I've had plenty of friends who lost all the weight, but as one friend described, "After breastfeeding, my C cup boobs hung like tube socks with a golf ball weighing down each end." She ended up with an excellent boob job.

Last year, 325,000 dissatisfied moms ordered a mommy makeover procedure, up 11 percent from the year before. Hey moms, if you had an extra $12,000-$15,000 would you partake in surgical solutions to sagging breasts and rounder middles? For those who've gone under the knife, are you pleased with the results?
