Praying for everyone who is having surgery today. Keep us posted

Are you packed, I am taking gas x strips, chap stick, slippers, pillow, phone and charger, rx, and not sure what else.

im trying to pack.It just feels so surreal right now I have to keep telling myself I am really doing this tomorrow. I am so hungry right now I am sitting here thinking of the things I wont be able to eat for a while.I know its bad.I haven't had any thoughts about it until now that I know I can't eat .I am so nervous right now. Am I the only one freaking out right now

just keep calm and pray you will do it your strong !!

Hi fellow sleeves-to-be!

I have a May Day of the18th! So many emotions, but above them all is excitement for this new life! "The journey of a 1000 miles begins with a single step." Blessings to all...

I'm May 18th also....

My surgery was on 5/5 and everything went well .No leaks. I did have an issue with my stomach being inflamed and anything I tried to drink other then ice chips I would throw up. Not a fun time. They gave me something for the inflammation and a needle in my back side for the nausea. Around 8 clock last night the nausea subsided and I have been able to drink apple juice and water. Going home today ????.. Sitting here sipping my apple juice.

I'm May 4th!

We have to stay in touch...

I had mine May 4th also!!

Surgery may 19th! What are some things that helped you get through preop

My surgery is the 19th too!!! Good luck!

I'm May 19th also!!!!

***Update*** had surgery at 8:45 am yesterday. It was supposed to be 7:15 but I got bumped. They provided me with something for the anxiety. I came to in the recovery room but in a lot of shoulder and chest pain from the gas. I was given pain meds and passed out. I awoke in my room and experienced a lot of gas pain and severe nausea. I'm not going to lie, the aftermath was very uncomfortable and I was constantly asking for pain and nausea meds. By night fall I was feeling MUCH better and was able to walk. I had interrupted sleep last night but that's to be expected when you have nurses coming in all night. Today, I feel great! I do have some soreness in my abdomen but it feels like I did too many crunches. The nausea non existent and I've been cleared to go home. For those of you about to go in, yes it will suck at first and then it gets better quick. Just rest, walk when your ready, don't be afraid to ask for meds, and moisten your mouth frequently for dry mouth. Good luck to you all!!
