After two days of recovery I’ve finally lost most of the anesthesia fog and I’m getting a little clearer.
My tummy looks like I’m pregnant with a painted on smiley face where my incisions are. I have four of them, with the lower one hurting the most. I spent part of today searching for sweat pants onine that will fit a 6’2" woman. I’m not sure when I’ll be able to button jeans again.
For all of you brave women out there who have had C-sections I sympathize with you in a way I could never before. Boy, am I sore!!
Because everyone was so happy with my results I don’t have a clear picture of exactly what was done on Friday but hope to talk to my Dr. tomorrow. I do know I have all my parts and pieces and that makes me smile.
God is so good to give us things we could never even imagine. Of course I’d figured out the three or four options I was going to be faced with and just like HIM he hands me one far better.
"I love you Jesus, just for being you."
Hope you had a good weekend.
Julie, I'm glad you made it through the surgery with the least amount of stuff taken out. Prayers for a quick and healthy recovery. I never had a c-section either, but the healing definitely takes awhile. Take it easy and don't stress your body too much. Good luck on finding those pants, too. You do need something comfy to wear with that incision. You might have to just go for mens if it comes to that.
Blessings,
Stacy
My mother is 5'8" and I purchased pants for her in the men's department at Kohls. As you recover, use caution, even when you are able to walk climbing stairs will pull different muscles and hurt!
So glad your surgery went well. I'm going to have to do a lot of reading to catch up…I haven't been over here in ages! Come visit me sometime at my new blog. I forgot what a GREAT photographer you are, I'm getting lots of ideas! I've got you on my RSS now, so I can keep up! 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving!
