Hi Ladies,
I had my procedure done yesterday and it wasn't too bad. I can't lie, it hurts more than I thought it would and it took a long time for them to remove it. They said it was bigger then they had expected but the whole area was numb so the onlY really painful part was the local novicane injection OW
I am just glad it's over, but know I can't WO and I feel like I am just sitting around and eating all day. I haven't been bad, I am within my daily points still but I am not being active AT ALL so I feel like I am just gaining pounds by the minute. Does anyone else ever feel like as long as it takes to loose the weight, you could just gain it all back in a day? I mean, I know that's silly but some mornings I wake up and I remember what I ate the night before and think "great, now I have to start all over again, back at the begining.
I mean even if I don't loose any lbs this week or even if I gain it's not like I haven't accomplished a lot already, right? OK sorry, I am just bummed being stuck in the house and overthinking everything. I jusr need someone to validate me, is what I am feeling normal? I mean it was just a little lump, but I was waiting for the doctor to say "oh sorry we were wrong, and it is not just a benign cyst" I am just so hormonal and I feel like if I don't get my emotions under control soon, I am going to eat them away or at least attempt to, we all know that won't do anything.
My dh has been wonderful, as usual. He is bathing Jax right now, and he has taken care of him all day. He cooked my dinner
and brought it to me in bed. He also slept on the couch this morning w/ no blanket because Jax was making alot of noise and he didn't want the baby monitor to wake me so he left me w/ all the blankets and took the monitor into the living room at like 5am!!
Oh also, I have steri-strips on my incision since the sticthes are on the inside, but I soaked threw them and the bandage w/ blood. I know that it's not "supposed" to bleed, but it's ok right? I mean it didn't hurt so I don't think I popped a stitch. They want me to keep the strips on for 7-10days but they are all stained
OK sorru if this is TMI. I know I should know this from school, but I just know that I am not supposed to take them off, but it will drive me crazy to have them on that long
Anyone have anything like this done before?
