use that time to be even more prepared! It will help your recovery, read some of the diaries so you know what to expect on the day and recovery etc...
It will soon be here and good luck and any question just shout! xxx

It's my op tomorrow. I've got to check in at 2pm tomorrow afternoon and my op is early evening. I stop 'eating' at 5 today and drink water until 12 noon tomorrow.

I've just been and bought a granny nightie and dressing gown for the hospital - I usually wear pyjamas and didn't have a nightie. I also bought my last pair of size 18 knickers My next pair will be a size 12!

First day of the rest of my life starts tomorrow. I'm absolutely crapping myself!

Good luck Karen xxx

Enjoy the rest of your last band free day

 

[miserable]

Good luck. It ll be soon all over. I am shining the looser bench for all our new banders

 

[Karen_Ponte]

I think the thing I'm most scared of is the pain. Is it bad? I am such a wimp and because I have a 6 and 2 year old to deal with every day I'm just thinking that it'll take me longer to recover. Someone tell me I'm wrong!

Everyone is different I had one of the easiest recovery. But was very tired the first three days so hope you ll have help looking after your two little ones. Lots of windeze pepermint tea and move about little and often. Hth xx

 

[Karen_Ponte]

I'm in the cab and I'm soooo nervous!! I keep thinking about the pain and to top it all, I got my period this morning - a week early! How inconvenient!!! I hope it doesn't affect things.

Can you banders actually 'feel' it inside you all the time? Sorry for all the last minute questions!
