Just a thought.)<\/p>\n<p>But anyways, I survived, and everything is healing up nicely. My lower incisions aren&#8217;t as minor as I had hoped, I guess they bled a bit afterwards and so they have some scabbing on them. Ick. My belly button incision, the one I thought would be the worst, is pretty tiny. However &#8211; they sewed up my belly button! I always had a pretty deep belly button&#8230; a little annoying, but it was <i>me<\/i>. Now it&#8217;s pretty shallow. They sewed it closed. Aacckkkk. Mustn&#8217;t dwell on it too much or I&#8217;ll freak out a little. (Yeah, of all the things to freak out about&#8230; )<\/p>\n<p>So if anyone is really interested in seeing a photo of my belly 4 days past lap, I&#8217;ll post it in the more section. I need to lay off the chocolate cake.

I&#8217;m just totally paranoid of hurting one of the incisions accidentally. (Paranoid as in afraid to touch my stomach.) I must sound ridiculous, but I&#8217;ve honestly never had cuts like this before and I don&#8217;t know what to do! The most I deal with is cat scratches and bites, and those are generally surface wounds that heal up without issue. Oh, and some sliced fingers, those require a bandaid &#8211; that never stay on anyways.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and on other notes I feel fine today. Itchy, but not much else. And whatever leftover bloating I feel I&#8217;m pretty sure is from AF, that bitch. I have, however, been totally stuffing myself with junk-food in a week-long pity party. That has got to <i>stop<\/i>. Aghhh. So much for slowly trimming down my weight before getting pregnant. My ass is as fat as ever &#8211; as the photos prove. Photos which, I might add, will never ever be posted on the &#8216;net.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I took off my bandaids. Ow motherfucking OW.
