I've been using about 6 pillows! One lengthwise on each side of my body and then 2 stacked on top of each other with a firmer one lengthwise on top of the stacked ones (in the middle of the the first two lengthwise pillows). For some reason I like something around my face while I sleep so I've been sort of bunching up one of my favorite blankets near my head and then I have another small pillow on top of that. Whatever works, right? :)
Everything went really well! Ive been offline (sort of a personal goal and experiment in human relations). I updated my review. Thanks for your support! I was really on the fence before I found realself. It was encouraging to know that other ladies were as apprehensive as I was going in, and thrilled coming out!
Iowa, thanks for checking in with me. My date IS getting close. I just took my last final on Monday and I'm taking an intense 2 week course for school that ends on Friday. Needless to say, I've had little time for myself and for thinking about anything, besides human physiology. (That's the class I just finished) My daughter is staying with her father's family all next week and my last day of work is Sunday. I'll have Mon-Wed to finish my preparations for Christmas and my surgery, then, I get to have my surgery on Thursday. I have two friends taking me to my surgery and will check on my dog throughout the day and then on Friday, my Aunt is picking me up from the hospital and taking me to her house. She has a recliner that I will sleep in for at least that night. Depending on how I feel, I might come home on Saturday, or I might stay longer. :) I know I'm welcome and that's a nice feeling going into this.
Hi Krose! We're scheduled a day apart from each other :) I'm the 22 of December. I agree people who don't have our problem don't understand, but pain is not measurable. It's a patient's perception and there is no true way to deny or confirm somebody's pain. You ARE Tiny. I am 5 foot (and a half of an inch, not that it truly makes a difference) so we're so close to the same size. Good luck with everything!
