I've never had reconstructive surgery so I'm going to think of this like childbirth (without the pain).

"Oh my god only ____ more times until I get to see the thing I've been waiting to see for so long!"

And the end result (kiddo, man chest, whatever) is awesome. So awesome.

In a way, I feel like I'm one step closer to being a daddy. This was a big step towards realizing myself as a man, so it follows in a way.

At the surgeon's office, the doctor commented that the binders they put on over the bandages are basically "torture devices". rofl He sure wasn't wrong. I'd been stuck on narcotic pain meds taken once every 4 hours. Once the damn thing came off, I've been taking HALF a dose of Tylenol every six to eight.

Some places on my ribs are still tender and I think bruised... hurts when I touch them. But I'm sure they'll heal up too.  

[Mama Ame]

Aww that's sweet. You'll make an awesome dad someday <3

And the bandages sounded so annoying. Not only painful but I imagine they were itchy as well.

I hope I will! Hubs and I are gonna be competing. 8U

Oh yeah, towards the latter part of the week I was required to wear it, it definitely got itchy. I kept sticking my finger in the edges and scratching. xd

He commented to me the other day that he intended to have the rule that 'No one leaves the dinner table until everyone's finished.'

I hope the kids aren't like my brother. He would sit at the table for forty-five minutes after everyone else had left, refusing to eat his cold vegetables.

Olivia is an incredible slow eater. Even if it's food she likes. Took her 45 minutes to eat half a grilled cheese the other day x_x

We don't make them eat all their food. But they have to eat a decent portion. And they have to at least try each thing on their plate. They don't really get "punished" for not eating. But if they don't eat they don't get dessert.
