Hi Becky I thought I would add the pain should be getting better soon I was feeling pretty good the 4th day. I also used 2 wedge pillows a small one for my head and a larger one for my feet. This kept the pressure off my incision so I could sleep better. Drink lots of water it also helps with the pain. It sounds weird but it works to flush your system and keep you walking just enough to the bathroom. Good luck you will be happy when you start to see how great you look. V:)

Hi Becky I'm 16 days post op I got my drain out on the 4th day. It felt weird not so much pain just strange feeling it go across the inside tummy. I am standing strait now and my pain is good. I'm not taking pain meds any longer. I have a suggestion though I had a problem going to the bathroom # 2 ask your Dr if it's ok to use fleet it's over the counter trust me it will save you horrible paine of not being able to go. I started throwing up because of it so do something before you run into that it's very painful and not good on the incision. I sure hope this helps a little it will get much better it's all downhill from here. V:)
