Is it normal to be more sore than i was the first day after surgery? My surgery was two days ago and I felt pretty good the day after but now my belly is sore and so is my hooha!

Re: Feel worse today than yesterday!
Yep. The day after surgery, you probably still had some anesthesia and paid meds coarsing through your body. Now, you don't. You also may now be contending with surgical gas causing pain throughout your torso.
This is a long healing process - weeks and even months, not days. Settle in, follow your doctor's restrictions and advice. You just had MAJOR surgery. Keep up on your pain meds, make sure you are taking stool softeners or magnesium so that you stay regular, ice on your belly and a frozen, water-soaked maxi pad in your underwear helps a ton. Rest. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate with water. Make sure you are voiding well. Do a few laps around your house every time you get up to use the restroom. Eat healthy.
Hang in there - it gets better!

Re: Feel worse today than yesterday!
It's two weeks today for me since my op, and some days I feel like I've started to heal, then the next day I feel really rough again. I figure its going to be a long road!

Re: Feel worse today than yesterday!
It's often a 3 steps forward, 2 steps back process. Healing comes in stages (rather than the straight line we tend to think), and with each stage, there seems to be a new adventure!
Rest well, and enjoy the down time! We get it so seldom.

The end of the second, start of the third week was the hardest for me. The first two weeks were a breeze...and then I started eating my normal diet again.
Six weeks out I feel great, I just wanna nap a lot!
