2 weeks vs 3 weeks

Seems like the swelling is coming back. Worse then the 2 weeks(11 days) post op pic. Ugh. But the bruising is going away and my belly button is looking better.

Pain is finally slowing down!

I’m about 3 weeks post op now and I still have intense pain at night and in the morning, but through out the day it seems like I’m pain free for the most part. I had a really good day two days ago, then the next day I had a bad day. They come and they go, but I’m excited that I’m finally having some relief. Here in about 4 days, I’ll be on my own with pain management. We’ll see how that goes, not excited about that. Actually very worried but I’m beginning to have some relief, so I hope 4 days is enough time for my pain to reside. I’m walking a lot more to try prepare my body to heal quickly before these 4 days come. Here’s a pic of my 3 week post op. Stitches were removed from belly button, and tape was removed and replaced with thinner tape. I’ll be removing the thinner tape myself in two days and I’ll be starting my scar cream/scar therapy. I was recommended coco butter, anyone have other recommended for scar therapy that worked great for them?

Staying positive.

Today is 11 days post op and it was the worst day so far. I was very nauseous and really sore all day. But I was finally able to enjoy the shower for the first time because I’m used to my stomach tightness without the binder on. I finally don’t feel like my guts are going to fall out without the binder on hahah! Emotionally I’ve been feeling very discouraged because I’ve been told the pain should be slowing down and I’m supposed to be feeling better now, but Im not and I feel like I’m behind everyone else at 11 days post op, but I’ve always had a low pain tolerance so it’s not unexpected just nerve racking because I don’t deal with pain well. But on the plus side, my 11 day post op picture gives me so much hope and makes all this pain and discomfort so worth it! I pray this next week is my turning week. I’m so ready to be pain free!!!! Regardless of the pain and discomfort, Im so grateful for Dr. Sillins and her staff! Every doctor visit I leave feeling confident and excited.
