Woot Woot!!nbsp; How're you feeling??


After the 26 hour mark I started feeling better, but my lower tummy is still bloated and painful. I'm finding myself going to the bathroom a lot, because of the pressure of my bladder. Luckily they removed all the eggs, because I've had the heating pad on my tummy the entire time and surely they'd be hard boiled by now!
