I went on they hooked me up to I. V. Walked In Operating room remember laying down saying I was dizzy. Next woke up in recovery and felt pretty good just had some cramping and back pain no worse than labor. Now on day 2 about same level of pain but still on meds. Showered today and now sleeping off and on so far so worth it!!

Day 8 body fills good finally! I am of course still tight in the stomach and not standing completely straight...maybe tomorrow! I go to see the PS tomorrow so hopefully some drains removed. If standing straight might go out on Saturday if we can find someone to watch the kids. To leave this house would be so nice getting bored. During this experience I have realized how much my three kids 9, 6, and 4 are able to do. I stay at home so I just do everything but they have helped do laundry, dishes, and clean up after themselves!!! So now they will have to help more often:) post more pics soon.

Day 16 I fill good and walking almost straight up!...

Day 16 I fill good and walking almost straight up! I do fill like my lower stomach is going to pop! When does that filling lessen?

He was very personable. Never rushed me in and out took his time with me. He never made me fill uncomfortable showing off all my excess skin felt very comfortable immediately! I liked location because hospital is right across the street so I was close in case of an emergency.
