Day 4 (Friday, May 28) - Chubby, chubby cheeks! lol Still had a lot of swelling. I think it's kind of a toss up as to if day 3 or 4 was my peak swelling day. I think my profile looked slightly more puffed on day 3. I was smiling in the first pic, that's all I could mange to get.I felt REALLY good this day. Especially considering what had been done just a couple days ago. I had another friend stop by the house to see me. She brought me flowers and a strawberry smoothie. :) She also brought over a sandwhich for my husband. Watching them eat their burgers and tots was a bit cruel since I won't be able to touch that stuff for 3 months. :( Oh well, gotta get used to it sometime.
