Pleae help! When do I start increasing fluids

I am one week and 1 day post surgery. When I was first released from the hospital it said to take in 2-4 oz per hour. I was wondering when I could increase that. I was reading that you can gradually increase this to 8 oz but I was just wondering when a safe time to start doing this.

    you should be drinking at least 80 oz a day now. Just remember to sip. You can still can get your fluids stuck if your not careful. Just have a bottle of Water with you all the time and sip.

    Good luck¡!
