Wednesday was my 3 week post op mark. I started back to work part time on Monday. Everyone welcomed me back with hugs and well wishes. My team surprised me with flowers and a cute card. Definitely brightened my 1st day back.
This week I've had light spotting on and off. Usually a light pink or brown color. Work is going well and doesn't make me feel exhausted when I get home. I'm still able to do a few chores after work and then I relax with some ice packs just in case. This morning I passed my first dissolving stitch. I saw it on the piece of toilet paper. It looked like a mini lasso rope. I'm hoping that's a sign I am healing well. I go for my 4 week check up on Tues.
The past few days I've gotten a few sharp tinges in my lower abs. Not painful just a little achy. Maybe because my stitches are starting to dissolve. I'm feeling better and better each day. I'm walking up to 2.25 miles at a time. I'm going to try for 3 miles this weekend as long as my body feels good. My foot and leg are also getting better each day. I feel like I'm getting back more feeling. I woke up the other night and realized I was sleeping on my belly. First time since before my surgery and it wasn't uncomfortable. I also noticed it no longer hurts to go over bumps while driving in a car. Each week gets better and better.
