So I had my gallbladder surgery done this past Thursday, the 22nd and I'm still a little doped up on pain meds but I am not in much pain. It went better than I expected.
We dropped Aubrey off with my sister Holly around 6 am and headed to the hospital. I was checked in by 8:30 am and in my room by 9 am. I had my IV put in and waited for them to come get me. Alex once again took off and left me alone. He's so impatient! It gets annoying sometimes!
At about 11:45am they came and got me. The anesthesiologist came in to talk to me and I joked about not wanting to die where he shrugged it off and didn't seem to give me a reassuring answer. Scary! I was then wheeled into the O.R. and it was so cold in there. Almost like a morgue. I even asked how they could stand it in there and that's the last thing I remember. I woke up back in my room to a nurse bitching to Alex about me not wanting to wake up and Alex explaining to her that we have a new baby at home and that is why I was so groggy.
I mean, no sleep at night and meds to knock my ass out for surgery and I am supposed to wake up like Mary Sunshine? Get real!
When I woke up Alex had gotten me a card, two cute new outfits for Aubrey and a clay kit with picture frame for her hand prints. [:
We left the hospital around 3 pm and headed home. My sister agreed to keep Aubrey a little longer that night so we could both nap because Alex was tired too. At about 8:30 pm, Alex picked up Aubrey and brought her home. I was so happy to see my baby girl but so doped up!
