Hoping to take some photos tomorrow after the bandages come off. I'm running out of run on my OH album, so I'll have to delete something or do something different.
I feel good, just having a hard time sleeping in the living room at times. We have a very small house and much of our activity seems to center in the livingroom/kitchen area. It can be hard to rest during the day.

I'm so glad to hear you are doing well, Can't believe they sent you home same day though - youch. Smart girl to stay in the recliner and not try the stairs yet - take it easy on those incisions!
I'm going to the gym today for both of us, so you spent some time in that recliner for me :)
Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers -

Have fun at the gyn tonight Kellie. I was a bit jealous of my dh getting to go this morning. My body wants to be active, but I really can't of course. I am trying to flex my feet, and when I get up to use the restroom, I walk around the living room a bit.
My incisions are more like a hockey stick incision, coming up my leg, and curving around into the groin. They extend about 1/2 up the vulva area. Not as bad as I figured. It is hard to get up and down from the recliner and on and off the potty. I was expecting a longer incision in the groin and for it to extend back farther, but it doesn't. It does come further down my leg than many poeople have for their thighs.
I wasn't expecting the nurse to be so willing to kick us out so fast. She seemed like she wanted to be somewhere else, and since I was the only scheduled elective surgery in the hospital, maybe she could leave that recovery room once I left. We were more comfortable at home, so it all worked out. The surgeon had told me that I would go home that day, unless there was a problem, but it still surprised me that they were wanting me to leave 2 hrs after. I was expecting to come home late that night.
I am working on my online class, and it is going OK. Makes more sense today than it did yesterday or Saturday night.
Anyway, enjoy the gym for me, and I'll enjoy the recliner for you!
