Hi ladies and thank you so much!! I am a little out of it still. Very dizzy! We arrived at about 12pm and I got changed and then laid in the hospital bed for hours, they put in my IV at around 1:30 and then wheeled me in at 2:47. They kept giving me morphine and that stuff burned SO bad while going through my IV. I fell asleep about 10mins later. My mom said the surgery lasted for about 2 1/2 hours, but nobody told her when I got out of recovery so that she could see me until 4 hours later so she was mad! Anyway's, the doctor told her the surgery went great and that it was a good thing I had it, because I had a huge cyst that had formed that needed to be drained and removed before it burst and caused an infection. It was the gland that controls the vagina lubrication and controls cm. He also removed a block of very thick scar tissue. Now I need to make me an appointment to get checked out by him in 10-14 days, he's going to remove the stitched(ouch!) My mom said I was really out of it last night, that I kept saying how much pain I was in and that I had one eye open, but it kept rolling back into the back of my head so that you could only see the white part. She said it freaked her out. The doctor had to keep giving me pain meds because the pain wouldn't go away and I kept going in and out of consciousness and kept asking my mom the same questions. I keep asking her the same questions today too though, lol! They took out my catheter at I think 12pm and then had me pee an hour later, I made sure my urine was diluted so that it wouldn't burn much and then they tried to put another catheter back in there and I was not going for that. We went back and forth on this for about 5 minutes and then she said well you can tell me I refuse it and then she'll let the doctor know. So I told her I refuse. She said it was to make sure I was emptying out my whole bladder. They also took out 4 feet of a long thick strip of paper they had impacted up there to keep the walls of my vagina from bleeding out all over. So that was uncomfortable when they were taking that out. My doctor told me earlier that it would be ok for me to bathe twice a day(especially since AF started yesterday), but the discharge nurse keeping telling me no baths, just showers. I'm going to call my doctor about this. I am still in a lot of pain and dizzy from the vicodin which hasn't helped the pain at all. Just makes me out of it!! Sydnee was great for grandma and grandpa. She slept a lot! I am not aloud to pick her up though for while. I cant lift anything 10lbs and over and I cant bend. A month ago I went to see a different doctor about how the left side of my vagina was swollen and so sore. I mean it was big, she looked at it and just told me that the doctor who stitched me up didn't stitch me up evenly and that my vagina was just lopsided now. I knew that wasn't the case since it wasn't always like that and it felt swollen, now to find out that it was a huge cyst about to burst. Ugh.. doctors!

Need to update a ticker, Silas Anthony Jordon born Oct 11, 2013. 6th baby, so much love!
I am in SOOOO much pain right now. It is absolutely Awful! the dang Motrin isn't working and I cant take anything else for 8 hours. Not to mention I am so bloated. I look like I am 4 months pregnant and my right hand is swollen from the IV and I have gained 7lbs even though I didn't eat for a day and a half. The doctor told me to definitely bathe and to come see him in 10 days so that he can remove the stitches, and then he'll start me on vaginal dilators. This is just about the same as what I went though after I came home with Sydnee(with the pain), except now she weighs more than 10lbs and So I cant pick her up at all and cant bend. Luckly my mom has been a huge help! She told me Sydnee was just not herself when I was gone, she slept most of the day and didn't want to get up(and that is definitely not Sydnee), but ever since I came home, she has been really hyper and her funny goofy self!!! : )
