Day 2 post-op.

[3mommy 52]

I'm feeling pretty good just exhausted, it's no joke when they say they make you walk every 2 hours even at night. I am having some gas pains around my tummy and I am very sore. I was able to drink fine this morn and I ate some puréed chicken and green Beans for lunch. It was 2oz of meat and 1/2 cup veggies and I could barely get halfway through. Not drinking with my meal was a tough adjustment. I kept instinctively reaching for the cup lol. I am soooooo happy I made this decision. It still seems so unreal.

you are still extremely swollen from surgery and am surprised you are eating...a lot of us was on liquids for 1 to 2 weeks after.....i suggest to sip slowly and keep on sipping to allow you insides to heal..as the swelling subsides, you will be able to eat/drink more/better.....but for heaven sakes, dont rush anything (even if you saw it elsewhere)...take care and rest when you need to

They had us eat eggs and drink before leaving hospital. I'm allowed mushie puréed foods only for one month. I'm ok eating but I eat about 2-3 tablespoons of food and then I can't eat anymore. food is staying down well. It's the gas and the soreness that's getting me.

I'm day 2 post op and on straight liquids. I too am surprised your eating so soon... Take it easy. I have been using the chewable gas x tablets and that has helped me.

I was surprised also but I am tolerating it. I can't eat alot just teeny tiny bits of puréed food and I've been drinking Water all day.
