Just wondering that how everyone else feels after a week out, I feel good i can walk around move and the only real pain i have is at my large insision like i am assuming that is where the port is it sort of feels like my skin wants to break open, like a strange sharp feeling is that normal I could just be too worried but wanted to know if anyone else felt that way or is it just me??? And if ya do have that pain what helps it?? Heating Pad or cold ice?? Thanks all!!!

 

PS i did get on the scale this morning 1 week out and down 10 lbs!!! Yah!!!!

    1st CONGRATS on the 10lbs! That is great news! I actually pulled a pair of pants off without undoing the button on them.....HEHEHEHE what fun that is!

    As far as my incision.....That is the one spot that hurt the most for me but doesn't hurt a bit now.....I am 2 weeks out today. Everytime I get out of a shower I put a little bit of rubbing alchol on it to dry it out. That is what my OBGYN had me do with my cut from both of my c-sections and hit helped a BUNCH! My didn't feel like it was goint to break open but did burn until I remembered the alchol trick. It was almost like it wasn't drying enough before.

    If it is really hurting it wouldn't hurt to just call your surgeon and run it by him just to double check.
