I'm so nervous I can't sleep! I know it will be fine but this waiting and worrying is awful! Who else is ready to have this over with? I wish you all the best!

Re: Best Wishes to our May 07 Princesses
I am sending you and best wishes for an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery as you head off to the hospital.
I will be joining you in the Post Op Forum as your Sunshine Sister in the weekly Recovery Progress thread for members having surgery between May 5 - 11. I will be there to offer support and encouragement on your recovery journey. Look for it at the top of the Post-Op Forum after your surgery.
A few things I found very helpful for my initial recovery:
• Stool softener
• Gas X
• Moist wipes rather than toilet tissue
• Heating pad
• Pillow pet / Body pillow
• Chapstick
• Notepad and pen (for keeping track of medications)
Here are a couple of links you may find helpful:
Mr. HysterSisters is a place for our loved ones to learn how to support us. You may download the e-book or scroll through the menu bar at the top of the screen with answers to common QUESTIONS, get FAQ, or ASK your own question. Mr. Hystersisters
What do all these abbreviations mean? Abbreviations
Deep breaths, you can do this! The nerves can be really overwhelming. Try to keep busy, clean the house (you won’t be doing it again for a while!), cook and freeze meals, get out of the house and enjoy your family. Take quiet time for yourself, enjoy a bath (you won’t be able to do that for a while either) and stock up on movies and books for your recovery.
Remember rule number 1 is to "Pamper the Princess"!

My surgery is next Monday. Very nervous, never had surgery before. Everyone has been encouraging, telling me everything is going to be ok. All I can tell you, be strong. That is what I need to tell myself also. Will be thinking of you.

Re: Best Wishes to our May 07 Princesses
Just had to share something funny my doc told me. When I mentioned being nervous he laughed and then said '' Don't worry, I am just talking the baby cradle, but I am leaving the playpen'' and then he winked. Omg, I was laughing my head off.
(((hugs))) Ladies, be strong, I wish you all the best!
