Day's Left until I become Mrs. Smith :)

I'm doing great. I was actually feeling pretty good the day of. It was kinda surreal actually, but the pain that night reminded me of the trauma that my body has endured a couple of hours earlier. I've been at home since but still plan on going back to work on Monday. Z has been wonderful and nurturing. Don't tell my mom, but I think he did a better job that my mother could have done. She would have been really worried and not given me any space to resume my normal activitieds. I'm already pretty much back to full range of motion. I do my exercises and stretches every couple of hours to keep me flexible and to help move the puppies where they should actually be (i.e. lower). I'm trying to still get rid of the bloat of the IV. Just about there but I'm going a bit stir crazy since I can't work out and all. I can not wait to get back into the gym though it won't be to do any running unfortunately. Recumberant bike here I come. I'm also going to ask the doctor if the elliptical w/out the arms is acceptable. If I can walk on the treadmill I don't see why not.
I started tappering off of the perscription pain meds the day after. Instead of 2 I was taking 1 every four hours and by the third day I was only on Tylenol. Day four I haven't had any and plan on trying to keep it that way. The exercises actually bring me a good amount of relief when I start getting stiff.
I'm glad I'm feeling better and that they are starting to look more natural. I can't wait to get back into the gym to get moving. My body really wants to sweat but I know I can't do that until I'm all healed.
Thanks for being so fantastic and being there for me Z. I love you with all of my heart.
