So glad to hear this! Yes, it’ll continue to get better each day. And each week. I think the hardest for me as 1) gas pains and 2) feeling like I had to go and being used to running to the bathroom like when I had colitis. The more you can hold it, the bigger the pouch can stretch to hold more.
Im about 7 mos post takedown- wow time flies, and I’m going about 10-12x a day. My doc said we can do better than that! So it’ll still improve.
Keep taking it one day at a time and glad you’re keeping such a positive outlook. They’ll be good and bad days, as with anything. But glad today is a good day.
Good luck to you you both who have the surgery coming up. The second surgery, I felt, was asier than my first (that is if you have it done in two stages).
