Smile I am still really tired at 14 days out???? Normal?

HI Friends,
I feel better and better everyday but I am so tired. I have two busy boys 6 yrs and 2 yrs and about a neighborhood and a half full of little ones who live at my house most of the time.. But back to my question is it still normal to be so tired?? When do you feel back to normal??
Thanks just love your feedback.
Cheers Judy

VERY normal! Jane and I were extremely tired for almost three months. We went to bed very early every night. Couldn't wait to get to sleep. Luckily our youngest was 20 yrs old, so we didn't have to chase him around.

very normal I was tired for about 3 months too. Remember it takes a min. of 6 weeks for you insides to heal. I sugest sending the neiborhood kids home and calling there mom's and see if your kids can visite them instead for the next couple of weeks. You need as much rest as you can get right now.

Almost four months and I'm still tired. Better every week, but still tired. Hope you get your energy back soon. I couldn't do it with all of those kids around.

very normal, you just had major surgery.
It took me a couple of months to be able to function without a daily nap.
