Sandy, oh my, you're sooooo far away. (Sniffle, Sniffle) But that's ok, because I know you're with a great surgeon.
Don't worry about posting, just take good care of yourself. When I was in the hospital I was glad that all I had to remember was "sip, walk, rest, repeat" because that was all my brain could handle then. When you leave the hospital it's a good idea to set and alarm clock so that you don't sleep more than four hours and then get up and walk to prevent blood clots. It's really easy to over-sleep: you'll be so tired.
The nausea meds should be a big help. You may have to try a few till you find the best.
Take care, I'm so excited for you! - Jenny
