    We have to have a drain tube?

    I had one after surgery that was fine the first three days, but days after that it became so sensitive and painful that it took my breath away when I walked. I guess everyone has very different experiences though!

    Stomach gurgling

    Oh that is great to hear! I'm glad it is somewhat normal! Thanks for the feedback girls! I think I'd be little lost without this source of support these first few weeks!

    Searching for encouragement

    Thanks for all the positive words guys, I really needed the pick me up today. My drain will be removed this afternoon and then I am heading home! and littlebearzmom; I asked my surgeon the same question. He said that they just put them in when a procedure becomes more bloody than usual, so your body doesn't have to absorb any extra "stuff". I'm not sure if that's a good answer, but I REALLY wish I didn't have one right now lol.
