[QUOTE="Momslittleangels, post: 360322, member: 905"] I had a partial hysterectomy (left the ovaries) when I was 30 years old, due to excessive bleeding (15-22 days per month). They also performed mine vaginally, which was so easy in the recovery department (compared to a mini laparotomy I had a few years earlier and they had to cut my stomach). They took me off work for 6 weeks and it was like a vacation for me. I don't recall having much pain at all. They told me not to lift anything heavy, including my kids, and to not vaccuum...LOL. Sounds like a plan to me - no problem doctor..... I almost felt guilty hanging around the house that long and could have worked without any pain, but I took advantage of the time off anyway. I was really nervous about "doing the deed" the first time, because I was thinking that there was this huge cavern in there where my uterus and cervix used to be. My husband said her couldn't tell the difference, which made me feel better. Are they going through the stomach or vaginally for your surgery? [/QUOTE]
