Day 8- All by myself

Ok, so today is the first day that I've had no help and so far, it hasn't been fun!

The baby (17 months) woke up after my husband left for work and decided to wake me up by punching me in the chest. I've been kicked during a nappy change and hurt myself putting the baby in the bath after having a nappy incident that no amount of wipes and patience could manage.

I also forgot that I can't extend my arms outwards and pulled one of my boobs causing the expoding pain again. It  is now very sore and swollen but nurofen and ice are helping, kind of.

I've had another good look and I am already so happy with the results! They are looking pretty bloody awesome. There is one pucker around my nipple that I am worried about but I can't tell if it is the actual stitching or the way that it is taped up. Some of the scarring around my other nipple is actually exposed and the work looks fantastic- the incision is so fine and delicate that it doesn't look like there will be a visible scar at all. It has actually healed much better than a paper cut on my finger that I did the same day. 

The boobs looks the same as yesterday. Swollen and multi-coloured but the stitches look fine.
