[quote=Anonymous]My daughter just had hers out although she is a bit younger. We did jello, Popsicle, pudding and wet oatmeal. Be careful with soup - make sure it is not hot just warm. Stay on top of the pain meds. We woke her up in the middle of the night for the first 4 or 5 nights to make sure we stayed on top of it. We would also alternated the pain meds so they overlapped and she was never without something. We used a humidifier at night which was good. Thankfully my DD's recovery was easier than we expected. She missed 5 days of school - had surgery on a Wednesday and was back the following Wednesday. Our Dr told us to wait till the following Monday but she was doing so well and so bored by the end we sent her back. She had some friends over and even went to a club meeting during the time she was out of school. Every recovery is different - hopefully your DD's will be easy. [/quote]
