I did it! Finally on the other side of surgery! I was very very lucky as I bounced back like a boss. I have a little pain on my left side but tylenol seems to take that away. I am discharged and DH is driving me home so I thought that I would update.
I did everything that I learned on this forum and even in the recovery area before I got to my room the nurse let me walk a bit. Then I walked and walked AND walked.
I walked nearly 2miles around the floor where my room was and it helped me work out the gas and discomfort after having my full liquids. It made me feel so much better!
Everyone at the hospital kept saying how amazing I was doing and how I was a "rock star " which made me feel great but it was because of all the great advice here on this forum that I did so well. I was beyond prepared and nothing was a surprise to me . So thank you everyone!!!
One more step conquered on this journey!
