It seems I'm a patient now!

Violetsniff  How lovely, I am going to start some preemie hats for the hospital as well. Have done one lot a little while ago. Have just finished my 'Knitted Knockers' for oncology/chemo unit so am going to start more hats. Niceand easy to pick up and and put down when not feeling too good.

Please post on Arts and Crafts thread when done.

Hi Jowoomot,

Thank you so much for that info, I guess it will take a while before this new boob feels anything like ‘normal’ and then of course it’s a new normal! Really hope it does! 

I almost had a doze but then the phone went.....doesn’t it always happen?! 

Still, it’s been an afternoon lazing on the sofa (and having a giggle at ‘You rang, M’Lord’) so making a chicken curry (cooked chicken) feels peanuts in comparison to housework (which I know I’m not allowed to do, and am not doing!!!) 

I can dust though......hubs has learnt how to vacuum but has yet to do upstairs, bless him. I’ve been picking up the bits of fluff/muck I see so it hasn’t got too bad.

Violetsniff the one thing you learn from this poop is how some people really step up.  I have learnt from some of the really selfless the people around me.  Your night sister sounds a real angel. ps love the idea of your group knitting &nattering whilst doing baby hats for new borns. Very topical

Flossie25 - headache still banished and trying a glass of wine now... I think a lot of people hit a post op low about the point you are at now: I reached it at the weekend. Any energetic exercise, you pay for afterwards. So as Violetsniff advises, get lots of rest and simple pottering.  Im back at work on Monday, so trying to take this week easy.

Hey, Eddiboy, back to work?????

Take it easy, lady, you’ve been through lots!

Flossie, be kind to yourself, it’s early days yet! 

Violetsniff, I too love your night sister! What a lovely lady!

One of my friends from choir came round with a pot of lovely bulbs and a pack of grapes, bless her, and is offering me lifts when I need them! 

Friends, true ones, really do step up to the mark!

Thanks moomy Eddiboy Violetsniff for the reminder I should take it easy...prob doesn’t help that got a bit of reaction to skin prep but kicked in antihistamines.
