I had my baby on Tuesday 4/2 at 4:30 pm. On Friday night I came into the ER with super intense stomach pains and could barely walk or stand. I had my husband take the baby home and just give him formula (even though I’m bf), because I didn’t want him sitting in the waiting room with sick people.

After 8 hours of waiting and tests I was finally told I had appendicitis and needed surgery! 😖

I ended up having surgery this morning about 3:30 am but haven’t seen my baby since yesterday. This is so hard! I have pumped some bottles for my husband to pick up and take to him but I’m so bummed that I’m missing these first days with our son. Plus our 17 month old daughter experiencing him. 😭

I am in the hospital through tomorrow.

Anyone experience the separation anxiety like this? It’s rough!
