Well . . . I was supposed to get my tubes tied today, but it didn't work. I was awake during the procedure and it was fairly painful let me tell you. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. On the bright side I got to see what my insides look like, pink cotton candy. Please mark OBGYN off the list of things I'd like to be when I grow up. No thank you. Now afterwards, I feel like someone stuck a metal rod inside me and swhished it around for a bit, and bruised up my insides. Which I guess they did. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. The best news of all is that I get to try again in a few weeks at no additional cost to me. Breathe in, breathe out. Percoset is a wonderful drug though.
