I'm on POD#5 too. It's hard getting all the fluids in. My doc wants 60oz fluids and 60gm protein, 5 walks, no more than 1oz every 15 minutes. That doesn't leave much time for sleeping. I have an abdominal binder that helps with the occasional cough. I'm a freak about BMs so I take gummy fiber squares and have had 2 bms already. All is well! Good luck to everyone! This is definitely not the easy way out!
