  3. First, You are awesome! second, I just had surgery Wednesday and the first 24 hours were the worst. stomach didn't hurt..one spot of stitches felt stretched but were fine...my pain was in left side of my chest and in shoulder. was trapped gas. that was the worst part. my daughter massaged it out felt so much better. just know I feel better today! so it does pass. Also, at home post OP tips...I highly recommend Depends, and ask your nurse for a personal binder (you wrap around stomach area to help contain it all...I felt like it was pulling down and the binder helped). the Depends served 2 purposes, in case I didn't make it to the potty...which for me was helpful and it reinforced the binder. also make sure you have your water, soups, jello and ice pops ready. You're gonna do great!
