Hi Blessed,

Welcome, glad you found us. You might want to join the June Bugs Club, if you haven't already. To answer your questions from the perspective of 4 weeks out:

1. Yes, but most of it is head hunger. You think you want to eat, but you're satisfied after a couple spoonfuls.

2. I had no pain with lap. I stopped taking pain meds on the second day after my surgery and haven't had a single twinge since. I'm a big baby when it comes to pain - just ask my dentist - so it's not like I'm trying to put a brave face on things. I honestly had no pain.

3. Sorry, can't answer this one - had the kid 18 years ago.

4. I slept most of the the first two days at home. It was nice. I had no pain or nausea, just felt pleasantly drowsy.
