Day 5

Yesterday started off bad, but then got better! The morning was so miserable. I think because I tried to drink some coffee. Bad move for my stomach. It was just protein coffee and it was a little bit but my digestive system just couldn't handle it. And my nose was sooo stuffed up. I was just so angry with the world. I walked outside and just sat on the back porch for a little bit after my shower, which was good. Except for the crazy wind.

Around 3 I decided we were going to go to my house and then pick-up the peanut from daycare. First time out of the house! I picked up some awesome mail from my bff. She sent me coloring books, crayons and tea! :) She's the bestest.

So we picked up Amelia from daycare and there wasn't that many people there. So I didn't get too many crazy stares. From the kids mostly, haha. She has finally figured out who I am I think. She's not afraid of me. We sat on the floor last night while everyone ate dinner and played and she kept trying to climb on me and I think she wanted me to hold her. I miss holding her. :( The whole outing was crazy because my sinuses went CRAZY! They kept opening and closing. Although a little painful, it felt relieving that they were something other than stuffed.

Anyway it was a good night because I got to see my cutie and my hubby. Plus my aunt and uncle stopped by. I tried mac n cheese for dinner, but it was pretty bad. It was chopped up really thin, but that actually made it worse and it all got stuck in my splint. So freaking annoying. But then I had mashed potatoes and it was the best thing ever. Four cheese mashed potatoes with gravy is where it's at for me right now, haha.

Pain-wise- I'm feeling a little more achy. I waited 2 extra hours to take the pain medication before bed last night. So I slept amazing because I got close to 7 hours. 11-2 and then 2-6. So I took one less dose yesterday! That's an accomplishment!

First day without my mom today, but I've got my dad, hubby, and brother-in-law. So I SHOULD be okay.... so far so good. Dad made me breakfast and cut up my anti-biotic. Now it's lunchtime! :) Already showered so it's all good. Here's some photos from yesterday!

Playing with the peanut.

Without the face bandage. It looks like a lot more swelling because it's off, but it's a lot better.
From the side.
This swelling needs to calm down. Seriously. Haha.

I'm yellin' timber...

Honestly... every time I CROSS-OFF an appointment. I add another one. This is getting a little out of control. I thought everything went pretty well on Thursday, but then the resident called me on Friday night to say that we need to RE-DO my upper molds. Sigh. He said that he has NEVER had this happen before and no one really knows what happened? Whatevs. He was SUPER apologetic and says it'll only take a few min. I talked to him last night and he gave me his personal cellphone number and is having me call him when I get there so he can do it right away. He's really a nice guy. I can't be too mad because he's being super nice about it. Even saying I can park in the free lot since it's $5 usually to park in Oakland. Woot. I'm just thankful I can just pop over after work. I know some people travel super far for jaw surgery. Anyway here's my (hopefully final) updated appt schedule. February 20th- Regular cleaning (with my regs dentist) March 4th- Regul...

Day 6

My set-up at my mom's. Vaporizer, for the win! This water bottle also has been amazing! So glad I got that and the jaw bra beforehand. They have both been lifesavers!  My parents and bff gave me the same get well card. Are they trying to tell me something? haha It was amusing. Yesterday was a great day! We had a full house at my mom's. My Uncle even dropped by.. even though it was just to have my dad help him buy movies off of his iPad, lol. My dad made me breakfast and lunch and my sister made me a banana-pineapple smoothie. It was bomb! I wish it weren't so cold or else I could go for more walks but it was a good day yesterday. Jon and the peanut came over, too and we had a ton of fun! I painted my nails rainbow (because I'm awesome) and Uncle Lou Lou played with Millie a lot. Driving in her favorite car! Getting fed by daddy. I miss feeding my baby girl. ;(  I had pureed spaghetti and meatballs for dinner! It's not much to look at, but oh man...

Today!!!

T-4 hours until surgery time! Hubby is driving us to the hospital as we speak! He's a trooper. 4 a.m. Amelia was fit to be tied last night. She was screaming bloody murder while jonny was holding her. It's like she knew I was leaving. Would only calm down with me. So sleep hardly happened last night. I probably got about 4 good hours. Not ideal but what are you gonna do? Especially whenever I had to wake up at 3:15, lol. Okay I think hubby needs help figuring out what garage we're heading to... so this is the last post on this side of things! See ya on the other side! Not as nervous as I thought, but I'm sure there's still a ton of time for that! ;) The photo is me and a friend's newborn. Love him.
