Hi erika40long,

I would definitely say this is far too soon. No matter how well she seems to be feeling, her body has went through an ordeal. Some people take a week to rest up even after having the anaesthetic. Personally, I took a week to convalesce- it should have been longer but I was getting married the following week so I had to push myself. Also, she will be bruised and tender from the surgical incisions and although they might look ok on the outside, they won't be fully healed on the inside. Rushing back to work will only delay her body healing, take time out and get plenty of sleep.

Best wishes

Vicki
