Having Lipo and Rhinoplasty Tomorrow. Going Back to Work on Monday... Worried About Recovery :S - La Paz, Bolivia

Hi! I'm 29, 5'5", 154lbs. I live in Bolivia, Mother or one. Before pregnancy I weighted 127 and I had an athletic figure. I was hoping to get my old body back and started to work out an diet after having my baby but after a year and a half I gave up, so I'm having lipo in my tummy, back and thighs tomorrow. In addition, I'll have a nose job, just a little work on the tip to refine it. I was able to get only one day off work so I'll have the procedures tomorrow Friday but I have to be at my desk on Monday. Of course I'm terrified about this. As if this wasn't enough I have a one and a half year old unstoppable little monster and although my husband is an angel I'm scared that I won't be able to take proper care of my child while I recover, and of course I'm also scared about my boy jumping up on me anytime for a horsey back ride! I read that some of you have young children too, how did you handle it? How was your recovery by day 3, how can I manage working so soon? I'm soooooo anxious! Doctor said that I'd be okay in 3 days but from all reviews I see that many of you felt ok in no less than a week :S

Well, today was the day, I spent about 4 hrs in surgery and 1 1/2 hrs in the recovery room. It's been 10 hrs now, I'm wearing a garment and I'm impressed!! it doesn't hurt as much as I thought! just soared in my lower back, but I can sit and move my upper body easily by myself. I suppose this is thanks to the painkillers in my drip. The doctor checked on me a couple of hours ago. She was satisfied with the progress. The awkward side is that I have been peeing A LOT but it turned out to be a very positive sign of recovery according to doc.
Hope tomorrow brings the same or less amount of discomfort.
I also mentioned that I had a nose job, well that one is also feeling fine. No pain, just bruises under my eyes and I'll wear plugs until tomorrow. I'm spending the night in the clinic and going home tomorrow at noon. My husband and child visited me, I still wonder how I will handle that sweet Tasmanian devil....

Hi, it's been 24 hrs after my surgery. I feel ok, I'm just soared, especially my back and abs and I'm terribly bruised. The doctor explained to me that my heart was beating rather fast during the surgery and that she decided not to use adrenaline on me to avoid complications, therefore I should expect more bruising and swelling, but the pain is not that bad. I'm confident that I will be able to go to work on Monday but I look like a monster! And my job requires me to deal will te public, oh boy! I'll scare some customers away I'm afraid...

I'll upload my before and after shots later, right now I can only post a couple of photos just taken.

Will keep you posted.
