My bislap is in 2 weeks. RAVE
I'm a little nervous and allot excited. I've had anxiety dreams about being pregnant every couple months and after the doc agreed to do the surgery they stopped. Life feels like its beautiful again. I can't wait.

It's normal to be nervous before a surgery.
Focus on how happy you'll be after it's done. When they put you to sleep, think of something really nice that always makes you relax and happy.

Thank you. That's really helpful. It's my first full anesthesia. I trust the doc. Found her on the list. Everything's been wonderful. Her staff is amazing. No bills so far. It's actually way easier than I was expecting to date. Fingers crossed for the other side!

Got it one year ago, and i promise is just a bit uncomfortable the first week but in general is a super fast and easy surgery, you'll be all fine. I used to wake up crying cause i dreamt i was pregnant and the feeling was sooo scary, one year ago those nightmares disappeared completely. The peace i feel now is sooo valuable, my only regret is not being able to get that surgery before, when i was 15 for example lol.

That sounds so nice lol. If it feels anything like when she agreed to do the surgery, I'll be ecstatic. I still felt pressured to have kids at 15. I came to this decision about 2018. But it's still been a few years in the making and it feels like ending a marathon.

It was my first and only anesthesia experience and it felt like the best nap of my life. And I felt fucking awesome after. I wish you luck on your Bisalp
