 Life smacks me in the head...I am still suffering from my chest thing... All the coughing has done something to my incisions cause they hurt like a B&^%*. SO I have been hanging low not doing much and poor hubby and the kids have had to pick up the slack. Which I feel horrid about. Thats my job I am the mom for petes sake ya know. Well yesterday hubby and I got into it over the computer of all things. Hubby was playing a game and I asked if he had given our son his meds that he is on and he said no I am busy. I have a short fuse when it comes to his meds so I smarted off with I forgot your toy/game is more important then Aidens meds...He flipped out. We started yelling..at one point he looked at me and said "Don't I do enough around here, I have fed the kids done dishes , clothes, cleaned the floors etc...I looked at him and said so how does it feel to be me? then I walked away and bawled for a couple hours. I know I am asking alot of him and the kids I know this but I cant do what I did I just cant right now...We made up kinda at least we are now talking. When I came down this morning (spent the whole day upstairs) the whole first floor had been scrubbed kitchen was spotless all of it. I know it's his way of saying sorry and he called this morning during his break to check and make sure I am feeling ok....This was a bump in the road a huge one but one we will get over together hopefully it is our last one.

 Not at all... This whole weekend was a mess. 3 of my kids plus hubby were/are sick. SO off to urgent care we all go. They ALL have respitory infections and 2 set of ear infections. So it was only a matter of time till mom got it. Woke up to a sore throat and I can feel it starting in my chest. Thankfully I go see my doc tomorrow for my follow up visit. I hope she can give me something to nip this in the butt before it gets bad. 

On the weight loss front the scale is still going down so thats nice :} I cant wait to see what the docs scale says. I am having no problemwhat so ever gettin gin my fluids. I even started to drink some protein as I was feeling so weak. And while I loved my protein before surgery I hate it all now. But I suffer thru it as I have to get it in. I did find that I can put it in my broth or in some hot chocolate to get it down better. I just cant wait till reall food but I am not pushing it at all. I sit with the family at dinner and see what they are having and it smells really good but I have no want to eat it at all. 


Oh well such is life. I am gonna try to get Ms Mady down for a nap....hopefully she will sleep.

Well Hubby went back to work today. I must say I was worried about him going. BUt I know he is only a phone call away. So this morning I wake up to 2 sick kiddos. Great mom is not in any shape to deal with this. But I am MOM I must. Thankfully it is my oldest and my youngest. gavin (oldest) is helping out with his sissy. Which is making it alot easier for mom to deal with.

Today for me pain wise it hasn't been that bad which is nice but thats cause I am still taking my pain meds. I learned from my sections that taking them is better then thinking you can do with out and then end up paying for it. I aint trying to be no superman. I have had alot of gas whether it was burping or tooting. And it hurt bad! So I asked here on OH if I could take Gas-X since I already take pepcid everyday.  Thankfully some sweet soul said yes...and I checked with my doc. So hubby went and got me some. I have to say I have hardly had any burping or gas today . It has been such a blessing. 

Hubby also brought my treadmill into the livingroom and set it up so that I can walk some on it to help with the gas and get me to feeling better. I have to tell  ya I walked for 5-6 mins on snail speed and I was dieing.  So I am just gonna walk a groove into my dinningroom floor around the table I guess. 

Good news I have lost all my water weight that I gained in the hospital 9 pounds! I could not believe it. I was so puffy.

Well this is my first entry. I am not much of a blogger. I love to chat and talk but just cant write what I want. I know weird but thats me. So I am 36 yrs old and just had RNY 5 days ago 4/1/11. While I am still in some pain I am feeling great. I am not hungry or having cravings. My emotions are kinda all over the place but I am used to that one after being pregnant 4 times. I have a wonderful hubby James that is taking such great care of me and my kids have been right there with him loving on mom. I truly am a blessed person. What is sad is that I do not think I realized  that till this week. Strange huh. I think it was more that I didn't think I deserved what I had. 

I am so glad I had this surgery and that it is going to give me back my life. I am still worried that I am going to mess something up but I am following my docs rules and when I am uncertain I know I can come here and ask anything that I need to. Which to me means the world.
