24 hours since I had my tongue

Not gonna lie… now I understand why they call it hell week 😭

This pain is on a completely different level. It legit felt like having a horrible toothache mixed with an ear infection at the same time. I was literally crying lol.

And what’s wild is I’ve had a C-section and somehow this pain is competing HARD 😭

Still happy I got it done, but whew… this healing process is no joke. I’ll definitely post my full experience/process once I’m fully healed because I wish I knew just how intense day one could feel.

I get my tongue split in 3 days and I’m trying to make sure I’m fully prepared because I really don’t want to realize I forgot something when I’m swollen and miserable 😭 So far I have: Insulated chin strap for my lymph nodes/swelling 4 tattoo bottles/squeeze bottles to shoot water in the back of my throat Liquid Tylenol Liquid Ibuprofen A ton of rags/towels (like 150 lol) Spit cup Neck pillow Applesauce Electrolytes Water Comfortable shirts 6 baby toothbrushes Baby toothpaste Alcohol-free mouthwash Am I missing anything important? Any last-minute things that helped during healing that you wish you had beforehand? I just want to be as prepared as possible before the 6th 😅
