Leaving for the hospital in 9 hours... I'M FREAKING OUT A LITTLE!

I've been so impatient, and so excited, and suddenly it's time to go. I wouldn't say I'm nervous, but I am feeling so overwhelmed, with so many different emotions. Ahhhhhhh! :o :o :o :o :o

Wish me luck everyone!

Best of luck! It is perfectly normal to be all of those things, including nervous. Can't wait to hear how it all goes for you :)

Luck!! Totally normal emotions! See you on the loser's bench! You got this!

Just got home from the hospital! I'm feeling soo much better than I was yesterday. Walking is still a little difficult for me but I'm doing it as much as I can. Liquids seem to be going down alright, including the skim milk they gave me (so happy I can still tolerate milk! I love milk). I have a ton of gas, though. Any suggestions on how to relieve it? I'm talking about intestinal gas, not the gas pumped in during surgery. That gas is slowly going away from walking. :)

Gas-X strips or chewables help a lot! Walking and heating pad. Congrats!
