When did you have it done? I had mine on 2/28 and right now its a lot better. Still sucks sitting though

I'm having mine on April 22ns and I have 2 young kids. How long should I hire help for?!? My oldest daughter is 3 and disabled. How bad does it hurt? I have a pretty high pain tolerance and I have had 2 csection with my kids.

Tia and I hope you feel better!

I guess I just didn't want everyone on my fb to know. I had already made my mind up and was tired of people talking about it. I would rather post a picture in 6 months and have people freak! I mean I want to scream" Hey fuckers I lost 24 pounds in 3 weeks" but i don't! haha I'll just share with you all :) We can become our own little support group! If y'all want to share a little information about yourself. You dont have too just an idea!

What LoL!!! Love what you put.

Hey fuckers I lost 24 pounds in 3 weeks. That's Great!!!. It's all about you and what.

Honestly the pain is the worst for the first 2 days and then it gets better with every day. You can't lift over 10 pounds and bending is a big chore; I'm still having trouble with it.

I will be hiring someone if my sister can't help me then. I don't want to come home and have no help and be forced to do things myself. I just hope my husband will help out on the weekends. He tends to give me shitty looks if he has to do "too much" lol.

I had my surgery one week ago on Feb. 26.

The pain was horrible the first night until they got the pain medications right. After that I had no issues. Much easier then the two c-sections and hysterectomy surgery I had in the past. I have no pain now. My doctor closed the holes with a special glue nor steri strips or sutures. I never had trouble sitting or coughing. I was discard three days post op and had a 2 hour car ride home with no discomfort. Everyone is different

Hi everyone, I'm 26 and I had my surgery feb. 26 2013. I have lost 50 pounds!! It's amazing having other young people to talk to it about.

I am 22 and I had the surgery Monday! Having minor pains but I'm hungry! I haven't found a good source of protein yet so maybe that's why? Any suggestions?
