I managed to get myself out of bed without too much pain! Result! Wow, that sounds pathetic, but really its been my biggest struggle (if you don't count cuddles with my gorgeous little Alice).
A week is an awfully long time when you are told by a lovely nurse that you can't pick up your own baby. I'm really finding it hard to restrain myself from grabbing her when she is upset or just wanting a cuddle.
Today I can definitely feel and see my swelling on my stomach and its making me look bloatey and gross, well that's what I think anyway, Lucien says it looks fine and its looking tonnes better each day.
We ventured as far as Mum's house today as well which was nice because I was starting to get cabin fever, don't get me wrong, I love my house and I love relaxing etc. but can't stand being bound to one place for days and days without at least going for a walk.
Next step is on Monday, taking the dressings off and exposing the potentially disgusting wounds. I don't think they are going to be, but its freaking me out thinking about what I'm going to find.
