Day 4 Post Op / 15FEB2011

Feb 15, 2011

AHHHHH! Home sweet home! It was so good to sleep in my own bed last night. Some of my gas started moving on the flight home last night, thank God. Gotta love those jet engines. I didn't worry about a thing. I just let 'er rip! I still have alot of gas, but I had a BM at the airport as well so things are moving in the right direction. I weighed this morning. 185.8. Exactly what I did the day before I left. I'm sure this will start moving as well as soon as I get this fluid off and stuff.

One thing I have noticed is that my wee one doesn't like cold things at all. I can sip alot of hot broth, but anything cold feels stuck and I think it makes my stomach kinda spasm. I'm sipping on some Isopure  zero carb pineapple orange banana juice with 40 g protein, but it's wayyy too cold. The flavor is not bad. I just put my heating pad back on my stomach so maybe that will help.

I had a shower this morning and changed my drain incision and belly button dressing. It looks real good. I can see it probably closing completely within the next few days. This is actually the drain incision....


I had made some broth before I left and froze it. I've got that out thawing now and I believe I'm going to try some Isopure Unflavored protein powder in it later if I ever get through this 20 oz of Isopure pre made drink.

Oh boy! My stomach is ROLLING today! Thankfully! I so ready to get over this bloat.
