I feel weak very often. I will be 3 weeks post op tomorrow

I have a 10 month old baby, and ever since I was pregnant, I have arranged this belly/leg prop thing. I never stopped doing it and now its really coming in handy. Pillow under belly, pillow between knees and something behind my back.... just sleep like a pregnant lady . lol

I was sleeved on the 12th how's everyone doing?

I have been looking for some partners. I feel kind of lonely here. I was sleeved on the 12th. Trinity.sharpe@yahoo.com

I was also sleeved on the 12th . I am finding luck with warm drinks. Cold just plain hurts

I never had a drain tube.....

I got sleeved monday 10/12 and Im just getting home. I am finding a VERY hard time drinking the isopure. And getting my protiens in. Also, cold things make my sleeve FREAK OUT. I am in alot of pain, but I dont want to hurt my body be not getting enough fluids. Any help?

My hospital did not offer an abdominal binder. Thanks for the good luck wishes. I am back home now. And I have lost 3lbs already! I am realizing that cold things HUUUUUURRRTTT. Why is this?

Had my Surgery yesterday! Thanks so much for all the advice, all of it really came ijn handy. Tey should be letting me go home tomorrow (Wednesday) Thanks!

Thanks so much everyone! I'm so excited and nervous . I can't believe my surgery is actually today. I'm so thankful for all if your helpful advice. I'm feeling better

Oh I totally forgot about the Liquid Tylonol! OMG! Thanks so much! I am doing last minute shopping today, so that was extremely helpful!

Thanks

Thanks for the replies! I thought about asking them for more time, but I have been on the liquid diet for about a week I feel like I have prepared my body. Well I have done all the pre surgery requirements which include the things you mentioned Surfer Girl. I remember in 08 when I joined baby center, how I didnt know what all the acronyms meant, now I cant type one sentence with out using BBC slang. . . . . I have no idea What a NUT is. AND what to pack for the hospital bag is something I NEED to go over. Thanks A TON for that.

Im new and ready to get familiar with the community here. Been thinking about making an account here for a while. Im just seeking general advice. I feel like my doctors office sort of rushed me. Yesterday, they told me someone canceled for Monday 10/12 and if I would like to take that Surgery date. Of course, I said SURE! Went the same day, and did all my pretesting and registered. Now its hitting me and Im freaking out! HELP! I have been a strong community member in other forums, but Im new here, and I would love some friends and support! Thanks
