Well, I made it!

The surgery went very well. The recovery is not nearly as bad as I had imagined and dreaded. Walking around and sipping as often as I can. Dr.Bhojani and the nursing staff were so comforting and supportive. Looking forward to going home in a couple of days. The fridge and pantry are stocked with the foods from the list we received at the pre-op class. Just curious...did anyone try baby food during the puréed stage?
