Re: Feel as if I am losing my mind.
Honey, it is okay to be nervous. Just don't get so you get stressed and cause yourself more harm than good. You will be fine, it is scary, but hold onto your faith. Your stronger than what you think, just stay positive and take sometime for yourself and do whatever you love doing just for you. Happy Anniversay. You remind me of an Anniversary I had with my husband back in 1991. We went out to eat a seafood dinner to celebrate our second Anniversary. I was scheduled to have an C-section surgery the next day, so you know that had me up in arms. But we had an healthy baby boy and that was an great Anniversay gift. So look at your surgery to get back to yourself as an type of Anniverysary gift for you and your husband. The best is yet to come. Will keep you in my prayers. You will be fine.

Re: Feel as if I am losing my mind.
Sounds like your ready. May I suggest you get some REALLY baggy pjs, or oversized comfy dress to wear home, and have available when you get home. Possibly some support panties, for about week 2, again oversized. I wasn't prepared to be so swollen for more than a couple of days, and it was longer. Also just having straws at home made a big difference in they way I had to move to drink, and a cup with a lid the straw could go in, a real plus since the pain mess made me kinda clumsy. Good Luck to you!

Thanks for the advice. I did buy some nightgowns and dresses. Might have to go buy the support panties, I just have the regular over-sized briefs
