Thank U so Much!! I have taken pain meds and slept a little... Everyone has been so helpful..

Much Love.........

Walk walk walk!! I was on my feet pretty much the whole day after my surgery, I just could not get comfortable and that was the only thing that remotely made me feel better. Fortunately it worked since I only had gas pain that first day. Just keep walking, doing heating pad, and gas x. :)
