Scheduled my TT and Panni for March 21
Saw Dr. Batra this morning for my consultation. My husband went with me. After coming home and discussing the $$$ I scheduled my TT and Panni for March 21. I was told that I will have a pump for pain and will be in the hospital for 24 hours. I will need my husband to be home with me for at least 3 days after the surgery. I feel like I'm getting a new baby or puppy...I'm so excited (and nervous). I'll keep you posted after my pre op appt.

Congrats. I will try and tell you everything I am going through but just know everyone does pain differently. I do not do pain well at all very low pain tolerance. My stay was 2 days in the hospital and I had a pain pump for the first 24 hours. My husband took off a week to help me out but to tell you the truth I could possible be ok with 3 days.
Congrats again on getting a date.

Tammy, I just looked at my surgery procedure hand-out and it says I will have a IFlo Pain Pump for 3 days WHEW!
Thanks for keeping me posted on your progress. I know you will look great for your daughter's wedding. I have daughters also and know how important this day is to you and her! Congratulations on your success.
