still bruised and sore
so it's been 8 days since my surgery. I'm doing well considering what I had done. As you can see I still have bruising. And it's weird because I'm bloated yet I didn't have any work done on my stomach so take that into consideration
Still haven't looked at the labiaplasty yet. When I get the courage and the before pics from the surgeon I'll post them
It definitely still hurts sometimes.
I really can't do anything except get up every so often to walk around. I can't exercise for 6 weeks which is hard for me since I work out pretty often. I can't even walk on a treadmill for 2 more weeks because you have to be careful about friction and that hinders healing. It's quite boring. I'm running out of shows to watch to pass the time.

I Finally Did It!
So I noticed that I had a little excess when I was 14, so way before this surgery probably became a and that you could even do anything about it. So needless to say I have been wanting it for a very long time. 90% of why I wanted this surgery was because sometimes it would get so irritated that I would cry. I was that miserable. And it's not like there was much to make that feeling go away. It would feel like tiny little tears sometimes. The other 10% was for cosmetic reasons. I self conscious a lot when I was with someone sexually.
I've been doing research for quite some time and I knew it had to be a woman that was going to perform it. Not sure why but I just didn't think a man could do it right. That's not to say they can't, but for me there was absolutely no compromise on that. I was even looking to go to San Antonio, Dallas, or Houston just to find the perfect woman surgeon. And I think I picked well. Dr. Amy Bekanich has been in the industry for quite some time. She was awesome and professional.
In addition to the labiaplasty I also have some lipo with a fat transfer. I only had local anesthesia (yikes!) which yes it definitely freaked me out. I've had lipo this way before so that wasn't a big deal, however, I have never had labiaplasty so I was more than nervous. I didn't need to worry because they ativan they give you is more that enough. It was great! I only experienced a tiny bit of pain a handful of times, so it was better than I thought it would be. They tell you not to look at it because you are very swollen and apparently it's not pretty so I'm going to wait on that. I was put into a garment after because of the lipo with an opening to go to the bathroom. Be very careful because you pretty much have to pull one or both sides apart when going to the bathroom otherwise you have a very good chance of peeing on yourself. Has this happened to me? Yes and it effing sucks because the last thing you want to have to do is try to take off your garment and do laundry. I have had to do this before and I almost fainted when I took it off. I don't know why.
The pain is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. The only bleeding I have I would consider to be spotting. I have a surgery pad that I keep in place with underwear. Over that I've been wearing loose pants. You can't wipe after you go to the restroom. BLOT only.
I'm day 2 post op and I'm doing pretty well considering. Staying on top of your pain meds is key. You're supposed to get up and walk around every so often. I actually picked up a shift at work tonight because I feel much better than yesterday. Granted I did sleep pretty much all day after I was done until 8 am this morning. I only have pics of my incisions and what my garment looks like. Labiaplasty photos will come a little later
