Recovery Room Night 1 & 2 KEEP *Updated*

I'm in SO much pain!!!!! Katelyn won't nurse, and all I can think about is the pain!! The cramping, the sorness and the ache. I asked the nurse for more meds, and a Higher dosage!! I don't want to feel any pain.

I still have some placenta inside and they gave me meds to help me fight infection and get it out. I'm bleeding a ton, and they keep pushing on my stomach every 30 minutes. I'm sooooo tired.

They finally gave me a shot in the tush of Demerol and Phenergan and a higher dosage of loratab (7.5) and IB Profen. Finally after 20 minutes I can finally relax, no more intense pain.

I can't get up by myself without Jed's help, my ligament pain is still there and WORSE, my left hip pelivic area is so bad that I can't walk on it. Jed is helping me to and from the bathroom to my bed. I am so tired of being so dependent on him for walking and moving around. He slept on the sofa bed in my room tonight, and I'm so grateful. I can't walk without him...or get on the bed either. I am so tired and still in so much pain.

Jed has been so incredibly amazing through all of this...I love him so much, if not even more now! If I had a low, it has now turned into a NEW low with this baby.....but he has been nothing but loving and supporting through it all. I'm so so LUCKY!

Oh no the baby is starting to wake up....Katelyn is having such a hard time nursing, and it hurts so bad, CREAM CREAM CREAM....OK..I've whined enough.....she went back to sleep.

Day two: 

I feel better today, and can get up a little more pain free. Jed still has to help me a TON, but I am feeling better. They gave me a shot of Demoral with Fenigrin for the pain , along with an up dose of Norco (IB Profen)?? 7.5 gm. YAY!! I am not feeling pain anymore, and can finally sleep better.

So I don't know how to say this without being totally gross, but EARLY this morning finally a big part of the placenta came out, and the nurse told me that is why I was in so much pain. Cause it was trying so hard to come out last night, talk about painful. THEN I took a shower and another big part of placenta came out again. The nurse said I probably had a lot of the placenta still inside and no wonder I was in so much pain. After that they were keeping a close watch on my bleeding and I had to tell them if I passed anymore of those huge placenta stuff. I didn't have anymore and after they passed my bleeding went down a TON and the pain went down with it as well. Finally ...ugh.

The pain was my biggest complaint, I still can't walk very well, it hurts so bad, but I got in and out of bed today with minimal help from Jed. I dont' know where this baby was, but she totally did something to my hips. I can't wait until I can walk by myself again.

BUT ON A GREAT NOTE...They have an all you can eat Room service menu....its HEAVEN! I am loving their Pot Roast and Mash potatoes. YUM!!!!! Carrot cake, and all the chocolate milk I can have. =)

Gonna go sleep.......No Pain, Baby Sleeping....Jed Snoring......
