Hernia Repair

After my pregnancy with the twins, I noticed a bulge right above my belly button. At my 6 week checkup after their birth I asked my doctor about it and she told me it was a hernia from my pregnancy and I would need to get it fixed if it started bothering me. Unfortunately there isn't another way to fix it besides surgery. During the past few months it was really bothering me. I went in and they told me I needed to get the surgery to fix it otherwise it can be fatal if it gets strangulated. I kept putting it off for multiple reason but after 5 days of pain I decided to go in and not risk it anymore.

It was a quick surgery, I was in and out in about 4 hours.

 

My lovely friend and neighbor from Illinois sent me these beautiful flowers. They are an uplifting sight to look at. Much love to you Barb and Chuck!

 

Unfortunately that same night, Cambree got the flu. She started throwing up at 10:30pm and didn't stop till the next morning at 6am. The only way I could get her to sleep in her bed was to bribe her. Honestly I didn't care, my belly hurt from the surgery and I didn't want a mess in my bed. So the next morning since she stayed in her room, she got a telescope and pirate set that she's been asking for. I think she makes a pretty cute pirate.

 

 

 

And just because she's cute I had to include Miss Addie who is doing fine. She had the flu on Sunday and was the culprit to as why Cambree was sick. Thankfully that's all behind us. I had to take a picture because I love how she holds her little feet on the highchair all propped up. Such a doll baby.

 

 

I'm feeling much better today and I am glad the surgery and hernia pain is over!
