Hey everyone..I'm doing pretty good..hope everyone had a great easter.
Some bullet points
-I started walking on the treadmill @3weeks and have been increasing the distance/speed everyday since.
-I notice more swelling towards the end of the day and I still get tired around 6/7 pm.
-the steri-strip are now off....and I noticed a few stitches "spitting sutures" at the end of tummy incision. I called the office and was told I could clip the thread or go in to the office...so I clipped it myself. No biggie ..didn't hurt.
-I have a few scabs on my incision...so hopefully in a week or so I can start my silicone sheets that I purchased...I have the long 7" and 3" sheets. 7" bought from amazon.
-I can do all housework ...it still is a bit difficult to get out of bed....but I can now sleep on my sides..even though I am a belly sleeper.
-oh and I notice that it gets harder to stand straight towards the end of the day also and I still have this funny penguin/duck walk...hahaha
How are things with you?

Did the Deed :-) today!
IT was not bad at all...I assumed the position...lol on my back with my head propped up and the rest is history!
IT was harder getting out of the bed then doing the deed...but any who
I have been doing great ...I am now standing 100% straight once I get moving...and I can even bend back a bit.
My nipples are still oh so senstive...like hyper senstive. I am starting to swell a bit more now that I am taking care of my family again.
NOTE to self...don't vacuum yet..because it hurts! It pulls something deep inside my tummy so no to that..even though the doc said I may be able to do it.
I don't have to go back to the Dr. For 2 whole months...he also said I can start easing back into workouts @3 weeks! So I will start with treadmill.
I posted a few pics...two of them I drew on bikinis to see what I might look like in them ..since I do not own any hahahaha..so if it looks funny that's because I drew it on with my stylus.
How is everyone doing?

Looking great! I love the drawings of the bikinis....think you should just draw some on your real body and strut out to the beach or pool ;)
BTW - I see you are from STL area....I am a HUGE HUGE HUGE Cardinals fan! YADI is my fav! Oh how I can't wait to wear a tight STL Cards shirt to the game this summer! Those stupid slim fit t's for women they sell have never fit me or showed the whole belly.
Hahaha. I wish I were that bold to do that..but thank you very much. I'm not big on sports but my family loves all of it. I hope you get your fitted shirt girl.
Love the hot pink one, can't wait to see one for real!
We should all meet at Mall of the Americas and shop til we drop. Maybe have a cocktail or two. :)
That we be so amazing to do! How have u been doing?
Better, going out to dinner tonight with the family. My back still hurts so bad, but I think I'm healing well. Been laughing a lot with hubby which hurts but also feels like I'm getting back to my self.
That's good....laughing still makes my muscles spasm...and for some reason my kids have me laughing more then usual. Have a great dinner.
The bikini that you drew on is a cute idea. I don't have one yet either. Your results just keep getting better and better each time you post. I told my husband we can't do it for 6 weeks. LOL
Thanks....6 weeks ha....my husband would be in a bad mood lol..so I caved
You look amazing Congratulations!!!
Thank you

Progressing nicely. Wish I was already where you are. Were you a nervous wreck right before surgery? It's starting to take a toll on me. I'm scared as heck. Anyhow you look fantastic.
Thank you and actually I wasn't nervous the day before or the day of...but I was extremely a nervous wreck a few weeks before! Sooo crazy I know but I was just ready.
You look so fabulous, I still feel like a train wreck.
Thanks....your close to getting pass that feeling.l
Awesome results! You have such smooth skin! Is that a fuzzy butt? heehee... someone's hair?? odd. ;p Great that you're standing at 2 wks... It's hard isn't it? Takes time but you'll get there...
Thank you and yes that's my youngest girl...she couldn't stay out of my RS photoshoot. Hahaha. standing straight is definitely a struggle
You look great! :D
Thank you kristie...so do you
