It's a Learning Experience

I think I'm going to tell my doc that I have buyer's remorse & would like my uterus back.

I had noooo clue about how much trouble the whole post-op process was going to be. Everyone I talked to made it seem easy. Everything I read on-line made it seem easy.

Until, you know, stuff happened to me that was like, "Wtf?!?!" All that stuff so far has been 'completely normal', but no one seems to mention it.

The band-aids bug the dog & she keeps poking me in the belly with her nose, which is not cool. I also seem to be sleeping a lot on her spot on the couch, so this afternoon she stuck one of her bones up under my head. I thought she was just being attentive and snuffling my ears, but she had ulterior motives.

The good thing is that the gas pain is almost completely gone, my intestines seem to be working, and I was hungry for the first time since the surgery today, which meant a variety of light, nutritious health-conscious snacks have been swept aside for doughnuts and pizza.
