yes I am still sleeping in the afternoons but from what I have read on other threads this is normal. I also checked with my dr and he too said it was normal.

YESSSSSSSSS! I am right there with you at 4 weeks!!!! Yesterday afternoon I felt like I was literally going to collapse in the floor! I was told that the #1 complaint my Dr got was no energy, but I never DRAEMED it would be this bad!!! Like this morning I got up at 6:30 to get my oldest son up for school, took him to school, then when I got back my 3 yr old was up, got him some cereal(I know, SLACK...LOL) and now at 11:20 I am exhausted and it's time to start lunch & dinner! AKKK all I want to do is get back in the bed with my pillows and heating pad and go to sleep! LOL... But then it will be time for my 8 yr old to be picked up from school, so fat chance huh?...LOL...I vote we all should be ordered energy injections!!! LOL Hope it makes you feel better just to know you are NOT alone!

I am 5 weeks and still feel drained during the afternoon. I am a morning person, usually up by 3 am getting ready for work. I am up at 3 am alright, but not by choice. I still have insomnia. No matter how tired I am in the evening, or afternoon, come bed time I am getting my second wind. It is so frustrating. I feel like a walking zombie most days now. I have ambien but it only lasts a few hours. I am still glad I did the hyst tho!! You are not alone.

I forgot to say that I sat in one spot the whole Superbowl game cuz i was too tired to get up and move!!! I don't even like football!!! I am happy though that since the surgery I don't need to pee every hour!!!So sitting in a chair for 4hours with no energy could be worse!!! At one point I said to our friends"Did anyone notice that I have not been to the bathroom at all???" After they all left, I went to bed-

I sat alot during the game also. I had lots of food prepared, and easy things to put away. Was very frustrated that no one pitched in after game to help put away. My DS's girlfriend slipped out while i wasn't looking as usual. She is a sweetie, but for some reason dosn't think she needs to help do anything. Wish I knew a way to get her to pitch in with out hurting her feelings, she will be DIL soon and don't need any friction between us.

i dont think family members or friends really understand how we feel or that we cant do alot of things . they cant see the wound ...not like a broken leg or arm so by association have no idea how we hurt. unless they have had a c section or a hyst themselves no clue . next time just say i could use a little help and if she gets upset too bad she should help anyway if your laid up or not it's just good manners.
