My lower abdomen is huge as if I'm pregnant - it's not fluid and my upper vag looks swollen as well. Is this normal!!! I'm 6 weeks PO and can't wear anything tight

Not sure what to pack??

Don't bother bringing under wears as you will be in your faja all day.
I brought 6 dresses and only wore one so far and several night gowns. I literally have my faja on all day and it's too hot to be wearing clothes unless ur going out or have to eat with the other girls in the house
Bring wife beaters for sure a big pack
Wipes
Bandaids
Your own bar of soap
Iron pills complex b and folic acid (they charge an arm and a leg here)
Pain meds from states the ones here suck!!
Small towels no need to bring the big ones
Snacks to eat during po appt
Alcohol
Lots of pads
Baby wipes

First check up with Yily

Today I had to wake up at 5am for my first PO appointment. The driver is here at 6 for my 7am appt. when I got to the clinic there were Atleast 20 other girls there for their po appt too!! Little by little more women came in. It got to the point where there weren't enough seats. Smfh! I waited a good hour before they called my name. I'm only 7 days PO so I didn't expect them to take my drain out I'm still very swollen and retaining a lot of the liquid so my belly looks deformed which is discouraging considering all of the pain im in. I do feel a little better today though.. Slowly getting there. Doctor told me I have to go back again before I leave this week. Girls were screaming as their drains came out so I'm not looking forward to that ????

I totally hear you on the post op Appointment! That's exactly what pissed me off about going to Yily was the wait at the post op Appointment and she didn't even see me. One of her nurses or whatever you want to call them did. It was annoying. And drain is very uncomfortable coming out. No real way to prepare I guess just take a nice deep breath and close your eyes
