About my 1st post op day

OK so i might be paying the price tomorrow but....

This all means a lot to me.

I went in at 6:45a, peed in a cup for a pregnancy test, put my robe, socks and calf things on. Oh and a hairnet thing. They put me in a lovely recliner chair with a thermal blanket. Fetched everything for me out of my hospital bag, my pills, documents etc. They even opened the faucet for the water to warm up so my hands wouldn't be cold when I wash them!

Everyone was kind, happy, positive and sweet. Dr Izenberg came in and did my markings in dot like markings (easier and less to clean).

At 7:30 I walked into the room next door, it was in a hospital. They helped me into my bed with pillows and warm blankets. Warned me of any cold sensations. Numbed my hand before they inserted the IV. Explained all potential sensations. Just treated me like a princess!

After the IV was inserted the nurse anestestist told me that she just released the anestesia. I literally responded, oh already, great, whoooooooooooo........ Yeah really it was in an instant. No spinning room nothing. At least, if it was I don't recall a thing.
My next memory was waking up in my chair under my cover with a registered nurse monitoring my blood pressure.

I started to cry. She said: "are you in pain?" I said: I feel great, I just wish my husband was here to tell me he loves me". She gave me a tissue and wiped my eyes. I was a little emotional before the surgery. She responded with: Would you like for me to call your MIL to come in now? And she did.

I peaked while still and my chair. They looked so great! Not even up high as they sometimes are which means the placement is great and if all is well they will drop to a more natural place.

MY MIL was delighted by my size. I think she was scared they would end up too big! She's been complimenting me all day!

SHe drove me home, I took some pics for you guys, facebooked, send some emails and napped an half hour later for just 2 hours. I've been up and about all day.

I've been eating butterscoth jello, which she made. Saltines, bananas and had a reb bull, my fav drink. I'm sure the caffeine can't be good for me but I was craving it. I'm doing the bland food thing so I won't strain my digestive system.

Apart from my pain pump which makes me look like flavor flave, I had 1 vicodin after my nap along with an over the counter stool softner. I should take the stool softner only twice a day. I had another vicodin at 6:30.

I walked to my mailbox today which left me out of breath once I came up the stairs. I was walking at a snail pace. My neighbors must of had thought I was high! I only did that at 5p.

Around lunch I was paying on line bills etc.
I've been on the phone ALL day. Started to read the great gatsby. Sorry too much effort to use caps all the time. Tried to close my eyes but I was just too excited.

I feel awesome, except for the feeling of a suma wrestler sitting on my chest. I think I feel slight plopping now, which is just the air moving its way out... or my body telling me to stop typing.

Dr told me I can put my bikini on after a week. He's coming over tomorrow to my house to check on me. How sweet.
Did I forget to mention they gifted me a bag of their beauty products? Not to be used on the incisions until after they heal and the Dr says it's ok.

My face color is a bit off but I slapped on some face tanner 2 days ago so I do look loads better with it.

OK, my dvd of desperate housewives is coming so I need to go relax now and be a good patient!

WIshing all you well
