I guess I got myself worked up and worried for nothing b/c you would not even know Olivia had surgery yesterday. She is 100% herself and not in pain at all and eating everything.
Yesterday morning was a tough one b/c she woke up early and wanted breakfast and juice, but she couldn't have any, so she just cried until we got into the car to leave. We checked in at 8:45am and then went into the room at 9:15, spoke w/ the doctor, nurses and anesthesiologist. We changed her into scrubs and then at 10:10 she walked down the hall with the anesthesiologist, holding her hand. She didn't cry at all or even look back to see if I was coming or not. Erik and I then headed off to the FamilyWaiting Room.
By 10:45 the doctor came out and told us she did great. She was still sleeping, so he would come get us once she woke up. We went into the recovery room at 11:15 when she finally woke up and we stayed there with her until about 12:30. She was fine and just sat on my lap carefully making sure she didn't move her arm that had the IV still in it. She ate 3 popsicles and was talking and watching TV. We left around 12:30 and the only tears while we were there was when the nurse was taking the tape off her arm that was holding the IV, other than that, she was great.
She slept for a while when we got home yesterday, but once she woke up, she was like nothing happened. Same this morning, she woke up happy as could be and I couldn't be happier!
Scott is still at my inlaws and I think Olivia might go there tonight for the rest of the week since she is doing so well b/c I have to go back to work tomorrow.
