My Mommy Makeover Journey

Returned to work last wed. So 3wks +2 days. I must say the first 4 hours were rough, mainly just bc i really rested during the 3 wks and did as little as possible (something very difficult for me). Then i got a break for a couple hours and the rest was a piece of cake. Thur and Fri were a breeze and i was pretty much non-stop from there with a birthday party for one of my boys and superbowl. I really feel back in the groove..except not lifting. i'm on call tonight and will work for prob 18hrs straight and i think i'll b fine. Tom will tell. I have 4 wk followup appt tom.

postop day 10.. well i overdid it on the day i went to postop appt and yesterday (iguess) last pm i started having increasing pain in my left hip to ovary area.. pretty bad pain so i took pain meds and an ambien just so i could go to sleep! this am i call dr office and Heather (who i absolutely love) told me she thought i pulled stressed one of the muscles he did repair work on. She told me to pretty much sit down and don't do anything for today and tom...and call if increases in size, redness etc. so i did that and so far pain has been MUCH better. My friend who is one wk tt, lift with implants and lipo of back went to her 1 wk postop appt. she felt great this am and tonight she is wiped out and in alot of pain....so ladies......even though u r feeling much better at one week and want to do more....restrain urself! i have been in more pain today than the entire time! i'm VERY pleased with my surgeon's surgical skill...i think however there is a mismatch in his ability and office organization...maybe it's me but ordering a binder and waiting a week for it...is that excessive? do other offices have an assortment of binders on hand? Don't get me wrong DR BASU is the BOMB..just sayin i wish i already had a snug 2nd binder
