Walking, walking, walking

Been walking for about an hour, with stops by my room for fluids and breathing, and the gas is starting to move. I think it is time for a little break. Was talking to a girl who had her surgery after me yesterday and they are discharging her tomorrow.

Walking is key but so is resting...

Keep up the good work.

I read somewhere about warm blankets on the tummy helps move the gas along too

Thanks everyone! I think I overdid it a bit this afternoon. I was heading back to bed and the NUT showed up so I decided to stand while talking with her, not my wisest move. I'm back to taking easy now. I think it is nap time. I will ask my nurse ahout a warm blanket when I see her next, although I'm roasting right now it is so stuffy in here!

Hope you move that gas soon and feel better.

Unless there is a medical reason not to, you should be discharged on Friday as well.

 

Resting is as important as walking to get the gas moving!
