  1. I had Cigna as well. The doctors staff was excellent at getting all the required information to them and also did follow up calls each week. It was "in review" for almost 3 weeks and then approved.
  2. I know that prayers helped tremendously with my any fears I might have had before going under. My doctor was an hour and a half late to the surgery and I did not have any of the relax medicine yet, but I didn't experience the anxiousness I would have thought I and I beleive it was because my friends were sending up prayers for me.

    I think it is normal.. I think this is the gas pain.. for me it was in my chest and left shoulder. It went away after a couple of days, but gas-x helps... they make the strips that dissolve in your mouth.
  4. I just had my surgery on the 20th of July... I have 7 and 8 year old boys. I felt like this recovery wasn't as bad as a c-section at all (also had two) and I felt pretty good on day 5. The boys were also aware that mommy was a little extra tired and couldn't help with everything.. they pitched in and helped!
