    Thank God for this site. I have been wondering if something is wrong with me. I had surgery 5 days ago and I think I'm ready. The only problem is my partner has no idea I've had surgery. He thinks i'm out of town and has been calling me constantly today, I know he's ready for me to "come home".

    We waited about 10 days I guess. I was interested before that but my husband actually didn't like the steri strips, he said I looked like I got shot up in a gang war. I said, "it's not like my stomach was so great to look at before" haha!
