Very proud of DS

DS was born with hypospadias, which means his urethra opening (pee hole) wasn't at the tip of his penis, but underneath the the penis. So basically he peed downward. Nothing to worry about as a baby but something that can obviously affect him as he grows up. Anyways, he underwent reconstructive outpatient surgery on Tuesday to fix the problem and he is doing SO well! We are giving him the meds prescribed and he is extra cuddly (he is definitely my more independant baby who'd rather explore than snuggle)...the doctor described the week ahead as a "tough one" and while it's been challenging at times, he is doing amazingly well! I'm just very proud of him and am so relieved surgery is over!

 

I am so glad that he is doing well. :hug:

 

That is great news that he is doing so well. Hope the recovery continues without any problems!!

 

What a little trooper! Hope his recovery continues to go smoothly

 

So happy to hear you have such a trooper on your hands!! Glad it is over and he is doing so well.

 

I'm so relieved he's doing so well. Hope the rest of the week goes well for him too.

 

Way to go for your DS! I hope he has a speedy recovery!

 

I'm so glad your son is recovering so well. Enjoy the snuggles, he'll be up and moving again soon!

 

Glad your son is doing well. Hope his recovery is quick and easy My son had his repair in January. It went much better than I had expected

 

Im so glad to hear he´s doing so well. Enjoy those snuggles, he´ll soon be right as rain and back to being independent Hope the week ahead brings a speedy recovery!

my first ds had has done at 10 months...went very well and the following week with the cather in wasn't really bad at all. he developed a fistula around 3yrs and had that repaired...it went much easier (on both of us) but the cather thing was harder cuz he was aware of it. gl...he'll do great!!

 

My son had his done at 19 months which was about a year ago. I never really realized how commom it is for little boys to have it. I am so glad he is doing well. After about 4 days, he will be totally back to his playful self again so enjoy the cuddles! :wub:

 

:clapping: I'm glad it went well!
