POST OP 4 DAYS/TODAYS MY BIRTHDAY

[Courtney Minor 26]

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY AND IM 4 DAYS POST OP. GAS PAIN IS GONE. REALLY DONT HAVE ANY PAIN EXCEPT WHERE THE ACTUAL SURGERY PART. IM NOT HUNGRY AT ALL BUT WHEN I SMELL food I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO CONTAIN A BEAST IN ITS CAGE. I GUESS THATS MY ADDICTION IM FIGHTING TO KEEP BACK. I ONLY DRINK WONTON broth, Water, AND POWERAID ZERO. I TRIED THE sugar free JELLY BUT IT HURT SO IM GOING TO HOLD OFF ON THAT FOR ANOTHER WEEK.

I WOKE UP IN THE MIDDLE OF MY SURGERY... VERY SCARY. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAS? MY MOTHER SAID SHE HAD WOKEN UP IN THE MIDDLE OF SURGERY BEFORE (NOT LAP BAND) AND SAID ITS ACTULLY COMMON.

THE HARDEST PART FOR ME THESE PAST COUPLE DAYS IS I CANT HOLD MY 6MONTH OLD AND ITS BEEN MAKING ME VERY SAD. LAST NIGHT MY HUSBAND SAT IN FRONT OF MY ADN HELD HIM TO MY FACE SO I COULD KISS HIM AND LOVE ON HIM AND HE WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE MY I WAS CRYING LIKE A BABY. I MISSED THE SMELL OF HIM. AND THE OTHER HARD PART HAS BEEN sleeping. IM A TOSSER WEHN I sleep AND EVERYTIME I EVEN MOVE SLIGHTLY I WAKE UP SO I CANT sleep MORE THEN AND HOUR AND IM UP.

Happy Birthday Courtney. I know it's hard to sleep and not hold the baby but it's just a blip on the radar. Soon enough, you will be able to do both. I'm very excited for you in having started your journey to a better quality of life. I can't wait for you to post on your next birthday and tell us how you are going to do something new and exciting this time around just because you can.

thank you both very much!

You woke up during surgery??? That's so scary! I'm 3 weeks post/op surgery. Just started real food, chicken, veggies and fruit cups. I have had no issues at all. Happy to have found this family. I am missing my glass of wine at the end of the day..... any knowledge on that??

Check with your doctor about alcohol. They all seem to have differing instructions on that.
