Your stomach is a mess, need a belly band or something for support.
Car rides are the worse, with 2 stitches sitting is just a problem in general. Get a good pillow.
Speak up, let the doctors and nurses know what you are feeling. It’s not okay to be in pain.
Allow yourself to not be perfect, there is not a playbook on how to do what and when to trust yourself and do what you feel is right.
