Well I made it home safely. My stomach has been talking to me a lot. Been sipping water but I'm only half way through 8 ounces. Ive been stopping if I feel pressure or pain.
I just got home too, but it's only day two for me. My incision area feels tight, like I just did a bunch of crunches to buff up my abs. The dry mouth I had is going away. I was able to get down an 8 oz protein shake. THank god because I was SOO hungry!
My first 2 days were not that fun. I was so nauseous from the anesthesia. The 3rd day was great and I was discharged from the hospital so it was awesome!
I am happy all went well sis, now it's time for the party to begin...Congrats to you! I am here if you need anything. Take your time with the water it will get easier.
