Well, it's been a few days since I have gone to only 2 morphine pills in a 24 hour period. I have been absolutely fine! YEAH! Tomorrow I will try going down to one at 6 am only. If I feel ok for 4 days, then I can try to completely go off the morphine. I've been having nightmares about the terrible contractions returning and not sleeping well. At least I'm not crying non-stop like I did when they lowered the dose from 30 to 15 mg.
I'm increasing my walking time to 20-25 min at least once a day, and I am not wearing the brace around my midsection anymore. Soon, I will start the physical therapy back class on Wed. mornings. I will have to attend that class even if I do go back to work in February, but I figure that Wednesday half-days each week is much better than all 5 days off every week!
The doc also said I should start getting out in public again to buiild up my stamina, so the girls took me to Trader Joes the other day, and I got my hair cut. Chrissy, my hair dresser, squirted my head down and cut quickly since the max time I can sit is 30 min. I am excited to get out!You may just see me in the grocery store. :)
Be sure to call if you want to take a stroll.
