Another day, another pillow

Not too much to tell, really, other than I cannot wait to lay on my side again!! My back is so stiff from only bring able to lay on it for the past almost week. I am so looking forward to laying on my side again. For now, however, I am just adding pillows, taking pillows away, fluffing them, punching them flat. Haha 

I am more swollen today than days past and I am going to just be honest and say that it is probably due to my over-doing things and thinking I am further along and feeling better than I really am. I have still been taking it easy but not as easy as I should, I am sure. I mean, I partially cleaned the kitchen earlier. πŸ˜• I told my husband that I would take it easy for the next couple of days and see if it goes back down. As long as it doesn’t get any worse I will use that as a gauge for how much I should allow myself to do. I meant to take pictures today but forgot. 

Over all, I am feeling good. I really am feeling better every day. Getting up is not near as hard, nor does it hurt near as bad, as it did just 2 days ago. I really am getting stronger and feeling better every day but, I won’t lie, I cannot wait for this part of recovery to be over. Oy. My back is still, the pulls when I move and when I stand, and the numbness…ohmygoodness. Again, I am feeling more and more every day or so but so much of my stomach is still numb it drives me crazy. Haha I can see my hand touching my stomach and I can feel my stomach with my hand but I cannot feel my hand with my stomach. It is just this weird sensation. So, yeah, I will be glad when this part of recovery is over.

My boobs…they are nice. I still don’t believe that they are mine to keep. LOL They have softened some and dropped a little but they still have a ways to go. I’m ok with that, though. They feel great! My scars look to be beautiful. My chest feels a bit stiff and tight but I think that it more due to my back being so stiff from the couch (I’m hoping to be in my bed some time this week but so far I have not been able to lay flat or get down onto my bed comfortably). I get a little pain when I try to stretch or when I inadvertently flex like when I reach back a certain way. Other than that, however, my boobs feel really good!

I’ll update with pictures, soon!
