Petunia is NOW Banded!!!

She was banded yesterday and had a BAD time with pain and had to stay the night. We are home now and she is resting and in better spirits. If you have any recovery secrets I would like to know. Watching her go through it at least I know what to expect, “GULP”………..

Good to hear that she's home. Just keep the liquids going in her and get her up to walk, walk, walk. this is really the best thing to work the soreness out. Let us know how you're both doing!

Petunia, Congratulations! A heating pad is soothing. Mylicon Baby Gas Drops will help w/any gas pains. It really will get better!

Congrats, Petunia

After two or three days you'll feel MUCH better. Walking also helped me a lot. Naturally, the first two days your're feeling your worst. But it gets better fast.
