Day 2: Mixed Emotions

Day 2: Mixed Emotions

It’s the second day since surgery and the day I can officially unwrap the bandages and shower.

My Mom came over to help today as Corvus had a fever yesterday afternoon and couldn’t go to daycare today. Of course, he hasn’t had a fever since yesterday afternoon, the little shit. So, he’s energetic and keeping daddy on his toes.

Mom brought breakfast, coffee, and lunch. After eating we went downstairs for the unveiling. I do have to admit, I’m a lot smaller than I was expecting. I hate to sit here and say I’m disappointed, because that’s not it. It’s a weird feeling. I’ve always had large breasts, and I’m feeling so small right now. However, I know these feelings will pass. I mean, they’re freaking gorgeous. The surgeon did an excellent job.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get a lot of time to inspect because I had a wave of dizziness wash over me suddenly that lasted a good 5 minutes or so it felt. All plans for a shower were cancelled and John and mom got me back to the couch to rest. Unwrapping the bandage caused a drop in blood pressure, which is not uncommon I guess. We’ll try again tomorrow for the shower. In the meantime, I’m back on the couch and resting. I haven’t had a drop in BP like that since Corvus was born. It’s an awful feeling, and I’m just glad I had a lot of support here to get me through it.
