Sorry it's been a few days.

I have meant to update way sooner but after surgery was kinda rough the first few days. Let me start at the beginning.

I went in last Thursday (5/17) at 630am to check in with the hospital. They took us back (daughter and hubby was with me) and went over things. Finally at 9 I saw the surgeon and the rest of the team. And then got moved to the room. All I remember is then blowing this cushion up to move me and next thing I know I am waking up to a nurse asking how I am doing. I stayed there for a bit before my mom and best friend came in. (They traded with hubby so I could get home easier. We have a truck)

Then spent most the afternoon throwing up and sleeping. Finally at 530ish I was told I could go home. So my mom brought me home. Where I basically just slept a lot. The feeling sick is still there even today. The pain hasn't been as bad as I expected. And I was told I lost almost 8lbs of breast. Way more than I expected. Saw the surgeon the next day and he said all went well. I see him again on weds. Just having a hard time with my stomach hurting and feeling so dizzy and sick. There is definite discomfort with the boobs but usually if i can sit back and relax i do okay. Update tomorrow after my appt

And I cant sleep. Ugh. Anyone else like this before surgery? I have to be in an hour earlier than I was first told but that's okay. Surgery starts around 9am Pacific time and is about 3.5hrs long. I miss my kids already lol. The older two are staying with my Grammy so they could go to school. Ugh. I am scared. Wish me luck!!!
