Hello gals. I didn't know my post went live or I would have updated sooner! Thank you kimmers25 for the warm welcome.

Got home yesterday at 6 pm and was in tremendous discomfort. I don't have the fortune of a recliner so I've been propped up in bed on pillows. By the middle of the night I was able toile bathroom trips alone! (I actually use a plastic bowl for now) I hardly slept because i had to pee so frequently.

Today I've been walking around my apartment every two hours. Hunched over of course. I'm scared of the narcotics so I've only taken one Percocet today with Tylenol in between. Ate a small amount of food but drinking plenty of water. The kids are gone until next week and my hubby has been waiting on me hand and foot! I've already sneaked a peek at my new body and I love it!

Day 5 and I took my first shower, it felt wonderful. Also sat on the toilet for the first time, it was easy and painless I wish I would have started earlier. Peeing in a bowl can get messy! I was in bed with loads of pillows until this point but my husband didn't like the way I slept so he rented me a recliner for a month. I'm having a few normal aches but haven't taken any pain meds today. I actually baked cupcakes withy kids. Of course I sat at the table while they poured the ingredients in the mixer. The hardest thing I did today was go to the bank(its just uncomfortable to be hunched over outside). My Hub said I look like my grandmother from the back! Lol ladies it does get better with everyday that passes. Im walking around more and more everyday. My worst pain right now is my lower back from being hunched over but I have a hot pack on it. I wish someone will tell me when it is ok to stand up straight!
