I am 10 days post.. I have 3 incisions.. 2 in my belly button and 1 on my side... And have mercy! If I would have known the belly button would have been such a pain to heal I would have went with the regular incisions (he gave me a choice to minimize scarring)

I wonder why I have five?

I have five as well. Also I want to add that I'm two and a half weeks post op and have no discomfort at all from my incisions. I want to scratch them sometimes but that's it! Lol

That's good to know!! I just can't seem to get comfortable any way a lie in the bed.

Oh yeah... I definitely know what you mean there... I put like 3-4 pillows and semi-propped myself up. Still wasn't comfortable but I couldn't lay flat, it felt like it was stretching the incisions and they would pop open Lol obviously they wouldn't, but they felt that way. I slept on my stomach first time about 5 days post-op, my side took a few more days. The side was the most uncomfortable at first. For my stomach I would SLOWLY get on all fours and place a pillow where my stomach was going to go and SLOWLY lower myself into the pillow. The pressure actually felt good for some reason. But it took me a while to build the courage to even try. But, it gets better I promise you that! Every day will start being better than the last!!!

I can slowly ease over on my side. Of course I'm scared to death that something has shifted or slipped. I have to get over that anxiety. Time will help hopefully. I haven't even tried my stomach. To chicken!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
