5 Days And Counting

March 21st is rapidly approaching and im anxious and nervous all at the same time....Im totally prepared as far as protein and chewable vitamins. Today i purchased a new pair of pj's for the hospital. Got my hair cut in a low maintenance hairstyle, found a sustitute driver to get my kids to & from school. Completed spring clean up of the front yard now all is left to do is change the linen and rotate the mattresses on the beds. Im staying busy to keep my mind off of counting the minutes down! Lol!

I pray all goes well

Thanks so much for your well wishes! Will be concluding my household chores today after church. 3days! I have to be at the hospital at 5:15 a.m with surgery at 7:15. I'm glad its early in the morning. By noon I'll be starting my new life! Yipee! Now what do I take to the hospital with me? Lol!

Chapstick!!! U will be so dry and won't be able to drink anything. My lips hurt so bad I finally needed to ask nurse for something. Then just basics, pj's, socks, toothbrush. Oh ya they will have u walking halls so slippers or flip flops. Mine was earlier in morning too, good thing because if it was later, my anxiety would of gotten the best of me. Well again good luck!

Things to take to the hospital would definitely be a sippy cup, robe so when you walk your butt isn't hanging out the back of the gown, favorite blanket so you stay nice and warm, slipper socks to keep your feet warm, slippers to walk in the halls with, definitely your own body wash, and Chapstick is a must and lotion....along with hair brush tooth brush etc.
