Recovering
I have been recovering from my c-section and starting to get back into the groove of things. Lack of sleep and preps for school have got me hella tired but none the less I have apparently been doing way to much. I know that having a c-section is considered a major surgery and your suppose to take it easy but that's not me. I was ready to get up and moving once all feeling came back to my legs. My Nurses and Dr's were surprised by my uplifting spirits and determination. They actually had to tell me to stop walking so much and to rest at the hospital.
Home has been a different story.
I've been told to stop doing so much but its my house and my family. I have to take care of things. Yes I just had a c-section but at the same time I'm starting to feel like myself again pre pregnancy. I already feel more energized and stronger. My moods are much more on the strong, confident, happy side. I'm wanting to hit my treadmill and walk for an hour. Unfortunately I was told by the Nurse who called to check up on me yesterday that I'm doing way to much and need to slow down. So now I'm struggling to relax and Karl has banned me from the treadmill although I keep eyeballing it every time i go to the kitchen. I know that its something that will make me happy again. Soon.....
I have so much more to write about but am going to break it up into several blogs. I'm going to try and write at least 2 a day to catch everyone up. Until then.....

Honestly,,,take it easy! I was doing way too much also, and didn't think anything of it, after all, it all needed to get done & I was feeling great. Well, I really paid for it after about 3 weeks! Then my recovery took about 3 more weeks.
Be careful & try to slow down!
