The best thing to come home to....

Thank you all for the good thoughts and wishes for my surgery.  Everything went according to plan and I left New Jersey more confident than ever that I made the right decision.   Recovery, as to be expected, has been uncomfortable but definitely easier than my c-section.  

Surgery was around 11 am on Friday and lasted about an hour.  In addition to placing the TAC, Dr. Davis was able to remove quite a bit of scar tissue from the large hematoma that I had after my c-section.  I was up in my room by 3pm and by 7am Saturday morning they had removed my IV, catheter, and oxygen and I was up and moving around.  I was discharged around 3pm and was home just in time to see Ginny before she went to bed.   Boy, it feels good to be home :)

It feels especially good to come home to this!



And then we celebrated :)

  1. Welcome home! I am so happy you are at peace with your decision. I love Ginny in her high chair. I always let my kids eat with their hands when they were tiny, with a nice bath following :) Hope your are feeling even better today!

  4. I somehow missed reading your post about the TAC until now. I am glad it went well and equally glad that you feel you made the right decision. And I think it's great you shared your research and experience regarding the surgery. Hopefully it will help others someday.

  5. Glad your surgery went well and I hope when the time comes, it works as planned. I have heard great success for traditional cerclages.
