Its only been a couple of days. Just remember that your body has been through a massive operation and although some people don't have a lot of pain afterwards, some do. Hope you feels better soon and congratulations!!

Make sure you're walking around, too! A lot of the pain I had post surgery was actually gas pain -- and walking around made it so I burped and farted and felt soooooooooooo much better!!

It's been a few days, be patient and walk, walk, walk. I took my med every time I thought I had a pain, just take it moderately, please don't get dependent on them.
