I FORGOT how much this hurt…ok, I remember it being difficult the last time around…I dragged on the fact that I had to stay in Burnaby hospital for 5 nights when I had the emergency c-section. This time around the nurse (most anyway) were awesome, and they had assign a nursing student to each c-section mom for practices which is pretty awesome because they focus solely on you.

We stay for a totally 48 hours before we were released, but I honestly had forgotten how much it hurts afterward. I remember the labor with Aidan was intense (me continues to pass out in between contractions, and apparently had ripped off the mattress at least twice while No.1 fan was talking on the phone…not holding my hands). This time I only used laughing gas…and the breath out twice, breath in once method.

After the hospital stay…I think I pull something inside. The incision site looks fine, but above the incision area, hurt like you put salt on your wound. That and the lack of sleep…

So, this is how much pills I need to take every 4 hours…4 pain killers, one anti-biotic. I always mixed up when I did took what, so now I have to write it down on Don’s peepee poo poo sheet as well….
