    I know this feed is a min old but I'm currently on day 5 post op from my DS and I would say that by day 3 I could do the basic things for myself, even if it took me forever. I stayed 1 night in the hospital (my doctor said I could spend a second night if I wanted but I didn't). I take myself to the bathroom and am mostly forcing myself to get up and get my own jello/broth/medication so that I can get more walking in. I live in a split entry and the stairs have not bothered me as long as I take it slow, but once I'm on the top floor I have everything I need and don't have to go up and down the stairs multiple times a day. I did need my husbands help showering and dressing though, mostly because I couldn't dry my legs or bend over completely to get my pants on. The biggest thing I've needed my family's help with is watching my 4 year old. There's no way I have the energy to keep track of him right now

    I had my DS done on September 6th so I'm not far ahead of you.
