Two Days After
It’s been about 48 hours since the procedure and I’m still doing really well. My moods have really regulated since then. Almost instantly, actually. I suffered from horrific mood swings the entire time I was pregnant, but now I feel normal again! My bleeding is practically non-existant—just a bit of brown (old blood) spotting when I wipe. I read that it can start out that way and then pick up a week later or just never happen at all, which I’m crossing my fingers for.
No real cramps either. I’ve had some dull throbs at night, but it’s not been really painful. I am still a bit tired. Yesterday I got off the train feeling all bouncy and excited (it was probably the music on my iPod) so I ran up the subway stairs only to get to the top and instantly regret it. I definitely don’t have the energy for that yet. Finally, the boobs are still a little bigger (my bra didn’t fit quite right this morning), but they don’t hurt as much.
I’m hosting a party this weekend and will have a lot of cooking and prep work to do for that. I’d been worried that I wasn’t going to feel well enough to do it, but right now that’s no longer a concern. Hopefully this great streak will continue. Now if I could only shed those extra 10 pounds I put on last month in the next four days! What would you say are the odds of that happening? ;)
