Feeling pants!! advice from any mums.

I’m now 6 days po and yesterday felt great, achy but managed to walk with kids to park and potter about house. Today I’ve woke up feeling completely run down and rough. My mouth has flared up in ulcers my throat is raw and I’m shattered. I feel awful as my 2 eldest kids are bored and there’s nothing I can do with them. They go to their dad’s tomorrow but I’m finding not being able to take them out etc the hardest part of this whole journey. I feel like an extremely selfish Mum, it’s making me that upset today I’m even questioning if I should’ve done this in first place. Sorry for rant, just don’t know what to do with myself. :'(

I completely know how you feel, I’ve got three also eldest is 11 middle one 8 and little one 19mth
My eldest can entertain himself but I keep being asked to take them swimming or do activities I can’t really risk doing yet
We have have had DVD days with treats a fashion show, I’ve been hiding things round the house playin hotter and colder..
Don’t feel guilty Hun I’ve always put my kids first and feel I’ve deserved to be happy and confident again,
U will feel better soon and be back to ur usual self xx
Chin up x

Thanks hun, super emotional today, mine are 6, 4 & 10 months. My Sis has been helping but she’s not maternal in slightest and can see my eldest especially seems upset that we’re not doing anything. Will get the treats out in a bit and put films on. How po are u chick? X

Dont feel bad meesh kids are kids and to be fair they get bored at the best of times anyway lol ive got a 6 yr old 4 yr old and 10 week old im going for mine end of sept and ill be in the same boat but a week or 2 to get back to normal is nothing hun and dont feel bad about it our bodies get ruined having our little ones us mums are far from selfish we always put ourselves last most of the time so cheer up chick you deserve it so stop feeling bloody guilty k 🙂 xx

Aww thanks chick. I’m plonked in front of tv with kiddies with plenty munchies when my lil one in bed. Think where others found day 3 & 4 hard, this is my worst. Looking forward to tomorrow and hopefully waking up feeling better. Xxxx

Ah don’t worry chick. Another day or 2 max and you should feel much much better. Stick with it, it really doesn’t last long Hun xxxx

Hi All, I am just about to book my op and really scared how it will affect me and my little one. He will be 15 months by the time I have it and on my own so friends etc. have offered to help with morning/nights and nursery drop offs… Again know I’m going to feel really guilty about not being able to pick him up etc. any tips or advice? X

Hi girls, feeling better than earlier. I’ve always been such a hands mum it’s so hard being completely out your comfort zone, but u r all right, won’t last long and the benefits of going swimming etc will be immense and I can’t wait. Thankyou so much for all your lovely words.
Planning c_Stanley23 literally work out 10 day, first 7 especially. Get toys on floor and have floor play, Disney films, get a friend daily to come round or stay for bed times and meal times. I’m 6 day’s po and struggle picking up my 10 month old. I’m single but my Sis has stayed over up till today. Although last 3 days she hasnt done anything which is y I’ve been pushing it too much I think. I’d say first 4 days after op dont plan to do anything but lie on sofa watching films. It’s do able hun. Alot of girls don’t get pain but I have. Just need to listen to your body.xxxx

Thanks Meesh, will make sure I’m very prepared with all pre cooked meals as well 🙂 on my own as well, just so worried something could go wrong and then it makes things more difficult x
