Evie and I stayed in the hospital for 3 days after my c-section. Health-wise, there were no complications, which is great. We had several vistors while we stayed, and I'm so thankful for the outpouring of love, support, and excitement.
The recovery from this c-section was SO MUCH easier than my first surgery. I guess my body just knew what it needed to do. I moved around a lot easier, and was able to do things that I would have never been able to do the first time around. For example, I showered by myself every day. The first time, Kyle had to hold me up while I very gingerly washed myself. I remember my every movement being terribly painful, but it was manageable this time.
We left the hospital on her due date, Monday, 9/26/11 at around noon. I felt both excited to go home and start real life and extremely scared that Kyle and I were going to attempt parenting again after such a loss. I knew that we would need support as we transitioned into parenting again.
