Yesterday was my 3 &1/2 week check up. I am now allowed to drive! Also I can pick up items that are 20lbs. I still can't pick up the girls but I am allowed to hold them if someone hands them too me. I also am allowed to vacuum - small amounts at a time (aka I cannot do the whole house in an hour like I usually do) - this is a big deal for me, as we have Bandit (our husky) who sheds ALL THE TIME! I go for another my final checkup in 6 weeks.
I am VERY thankful for Justin and for our family friend/future sister-in-law, Jessica (Jecca). She has been here every day to help out with the girls and driving needs. Justin has really pitched in with the girls, around the house and making his work appointments around any of our needs.
I had a very small infection in the actual surgical site. The doctor yesterday removed part of the infected stitch and put me on a bit of antibiotics just to finish clearing it up. The surgery definitely served it's purpose. I have not had a migraine or arm pain/numbness since the surgery - it was very effective.
