Hey TT's! It's been a while! Obviously in my last update you could tell that was my worse day so far lol! Today is day 8 PO, and I feel good! No pain, just soreness on my abs where they repaired my muscle and I do have some tenderness due to the bruising on my thighs. My TT looks good, ps says it's still a bit swollen as well as my thighs. I will post pics asap!
Lets see, going back a few days, I had a check up with ps 4 days PO and they put me in a under garmet, they had to put me in a large since dr says tummy was very swollen, he says I'll later need to purchase a medium once swelling goes down. I still have to wear my binder on top which helps tremendously! I feel so much more support. Also that day I had a bm! Yay me! Lol, I know it's tmi but such a relief! Day 5 PO I completely stopped my pain med, I just felt so zombied out and out of it, ifeel so much better w/o it. Happy Healing everyone!

Hey TTs! Well I'm 3 days post op and I feel good, I'm going to go back a few day to let you know all the details.

Day 1 post op- 1/25/12 I got to go home that day around 9:30am but before that, my nurse came in and took off my urine catheter got me up to walk around which wasnt a bad experience, she also made me pee before releasing me. I learned that I had some muscle repair and dr centered my belly button, I asked if I had stitches or staples and they said I had dissolvable stitches in the inside but they glued my incision? Has anyone else had glue? Anyway, I felt good all day, i missed my home and my kids. I slept the day away..
