Well after a very painful first night (not actually caused by the op) I'm doing really well. Tummy is very sore probably due to the wind. Just managed my first bowel motion, didn't have constipation as such, my pelvic floor just wouldn't open up. It was a strange sensation, pooing when everything is hitched up where it's supposed to be, but really great too. Standing up and not having sagging bits between my legs is just fantastic, I'm over the moon. No pain at all from the anterior repair, I wouldn't know it's been done. Been tensing my pelvic floor and still no pain. I wish I'd had it done years ago.

      I've been told I can, but I'm not laying down or soaking because it seems there is conflicting advice on bathing. I don't have a shower so no choice. I'm not using anything in the Bath and only washing with a mild sanex. My daughter is going to wash my hair this afternoon, it's awful! X
