Hi everyone! Surgery went great yesterday. I have no post-op bleeding at all, although the surgeon says I may not see any discharge until about 3-4 days after. I have no pain -- I only had to take 1/2 a pain killer in recovery and have been fine with just Advil after that. I do have a mild headache, but the surgeon says that's from the scopalmine patches they put on me for nausea and should go away soon. And I am now off the birth control pill.

My husband is going to have the big V next week so we don't have to use any other form of birth control. I could still get pregnant, but wouldn't be able to carry the baby and it could kill me.

I'm hoping I will be one of the lucky ones who no longer gets any period at all -- we'll know mid-June for sure when it's time for my next one.

so glad to hear your surgery went well...They must have pumped you up with lots of water for you to gain 7 lbs! Good luck to your husband for the big V!
