Less than 24 hours after surgery

Didn't get to leave the hospital till after 8 pm due to the fact that I couln't pee. Well, after 3 iv's and 5 or more cups of water/chipped ice and a grape juice I was finally able to go...didn't completely empty though. Well that happened during the night. Was up 6 times during the night to go. My precious baby girl (19 almost 20) took care of me and slept on the other couch across from me. Every time I got up, she was up checking on me and helping me up. Even with the phenergan sup. lol. Some gas pain this a.m. but taking chewable gasX. Trying to stay up as much as possible to get it to pass if that's truly what it is
