My First Peek....

I am not going to lie, last night was pretty tough :) So much pressure and pain. But it seems to get better and better little by little. I went back to the doctor today and they took off the bandages, so I saw them for the first time. I was prepared for them to be huge, swollen, oddly shaped and generally unattractive. But I actually really loved them! They looked really good even with the swelling. I can't believe I was so stressed out about the size. My first thought when I looked at them was, I hope they don't get too much smaller when the swelling goes down!! Can you believe that! LOL! I am so happy and can't wait to see them when they drop into place and lose the higher swelling. I did not like seeing the swelling in my belly though. It is normal, and the nurse said that would go a way soon. I can shower tomorrow and will hopefully be off the pain meds and onto motrin by saturday. It has not been too bad. I have only had to take one Lortab every 4-6 hours so far. What a crazy adventure! Could not have survived without all your support :)
