mrs.katie 27 Posted August 22, 2013 I'm in my room. My belly is swollen and very painful, plus the leftover gas hurts. I am on a morphine pump and I have slept most of the day. I have a catheter, which is good because walking to the bathroom is exhausting. I'm also not allowed to eat or drink anything until tomorrow. Lord, Water never looked so tempting in all my life!

He didn't leave the catheter in so I have been getting up all the time to go to the bathroom. My stomach is in a lot of pain but I have been walking around to try and get rid of the air!

katie206 12 Posted August 23, 2013 Yay! So happy everyone did well! My surgery went great, was in a lot of pain earlier but I've walked around 4 times now and that helped a ton! Still have a catheter in, thank god cus I could not imagine getting unhooked from all this stuff every time i had to use the bathroom. Should be getting discharged tomorrow! Remember ladies, today was the first day to the rest of our amazing lives! Goodnight 2 roundfuzzy and mrs.katie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gem_2701 7 Posted August 23, 2013 I made it!!! I'm finally on the losers bench after a 5 hour surgery with a small complication. I'm in and out of sleep but wanted to check in and let you ladies know I'm ok. So glad to read everyone else is sitting next to me on that bench. ???? 1 roundfuzzy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
preemiemommy2009 5 Posted August 23, 2013 On the losers bench! The gas pain is awful. On Clear Liquids. No Catheter, off the oxygen and leg pumps that prevent clots. But my oh my all the pills and shots and i.v. Duff is crazy. Everyone says i look great, incisions good. Took a shower. Pray for burps! Let's all kit! 1 roundfuzzy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs.katie 27 Posted August 23, 2013 I had my contrast test this morning and as of 1:15 pm I am on clear liquids! I have had 0.5 oz of sugar-free Jello and I am constantly sipping Water. I am so tired, which I expected. Two major surgeries in one month is hard. I am actually fighting sleep as I write this. Sleep obviously wins so I will talk with you gals later!

katie206 12 Posted August 23, 2013 Getting discharged now! was getting worried because I could not pee after they took the catheter out so they would have had to put another one in! Luckily the peeing gods were with me lol! So happy to be going home in some pain but much more manageable today! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
