Go ahead, smell me....isn't it fabulous??!?!! I'm CLEAN!

After 11 days of baby wipes, washing my hair in a kitchen sink and feeling so miserable....my surgeon said I could take shower!

I still have one drain left, but my incision line has completely closed up. He removed the last of the steri-strip. The stitches from my belly button were removed today because that's healed too.

I took a new picture today, since I was feeling so happy after my shower.

I didn't post a pic of it but if I may say so my new booty is looking pretty damn nice!

I'm glad to hear that you are feeling so much better. It is always good to smell and feel fresh. And only one drain to go. That's great! How does those drains feel when they take them out. It just sounds so scary. But better out then in. Hope to see you soon. Take care.

Smooches
