Surgery date March 16th, who's with me? ????

[foreversleeved08 74]

I have been in recovery for I want to say 5 hours, and besides a dry mouth and some Soreness I am doing awesome! my happy button may be doing the trick lol I can walk and move just fine, mouth feels like the Desert lol but they have these sponge tipped sticks that I can stick in Water and wet my mouth....one thing I'm hating is constant dozing off, I know it will wear off but it makes conversation very irritating and hard....anyway sorry it took so long just wanted to give an update! sorry for misspelling, it's the anesthesia I promise haha

Congrats! I'm glad to hear you are doing so well! Are you going home today or tomorrow?

Aww Thank you! ???????? if there are no complications I should be discharged tomorrow

That's still considered outpatient right? Since your surgery was later in the day?

My surgery is in exactly a week. I'd like to keep up with you and your progress since we our surgeries are so close!

I believe this procedure is an inpatient only procedure? out patient is anything that doesn't require u to be admitted at a hospital...I could be wrong though...but ive seen it vary to only 1-2 nights usually it's just an overnight stay without any complications...and of course feel free to ask me anything!

Getting ready to go to my X-ray to check for leaks, pray for me guys! If no leaks I can start to sip and eat SF liquids!

[foreversleeved08 74]

X-ray looks good! No leaks :') praise the lord, now let's keep it that way! Lol Heads up on the drink they make u drink for the X-ray, it's pretty gross and u can't wash it down after words, u can only wash ur mouth out...she told me I could just gulp it but I didn't wanna risk it no matter how nasty it was lol

Mine is supposed to be outpatient. I'm supposed to get there really in the morning and be released by that evening. This way it's more affordable for patients since it's less time. Mine is also being done at a surgery center and not a full blown hospital.

Oh okay! Wow that's awesome! Especially because it looks like u have babies, it's been so hard to be away from mine, all I want to do is hold them, we live about 35 minutes away from the hospital....

Yes I do have babies. 11 yr old step son and a 9 month old and being away will be very hard!

Congrats on your leak test!

Well, they want to keep me another night. I'm bored already and hospitals are not comfy. They want me to drink lots more Water before they release me . So far I can get take 10 oz in about a couple of hours, Had Jello and spoonfuls of broth.< /p>

[Tamsboyd 40]

I have to stay another night also. I'm really nauseaus and can't drink a lot. I tried a Popsicle and got sick. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for us all

[ladycook9713 442]

Hope yall feel better soon!

[foreversleeved08 74]

Hello ladies I've been home since 3pm, I came home and all I did was sleep! The pain medicine they had me on was way to strong for me and I couldn't sleep so that couple of hours was the best sleep I've had since surgery. My husband bless his heart is helping out so much but has to go back to work tomorrow. I'll have both kids with me. It makes me so sad to not be able to cuddle them as usual but I know this will pass. We have to force ourselves to take it easy and not do too much. My grandma will be coming over to help with my kids tomorrow....I'm so happy to see you all on the other side and doing well. This is just the beginning but the pain will ease and soon we'll be back to normal <3

Aww I bet they are adorable, ur 11 year old will be a big help I'm sure! My Doctor does not want me carrying my baby after surgery, she's 2 1/2 months old, they said no more than 10 lbs...I hope u have someone that can help you afterwards since u have a small one like me, the pain isn't unbearable but it's there...

[ladycook9713 442]

My doctor said nothing over 15lbs. I'll probably have to pick her up a couple of times, but definitely hoping my 11yr old can help me out. She'll be going to the baby sitter everyday. So it's just a matter of getting her out to the car each morning. We don't have any family near us, but we also haven't told anyone about or surgery except for my husbands brother. And that was only because we needed someone to pick up the 11 yr old from school. Baby sitter has said she'll watch the baby later for us.
