Yep, not surprising at all. Put your feet up and rest when you can.

I think we all find this out the hard way, it's a lot closer to the bathroom in the hospital also and there is no kitchen counter to wipe, etc., etc.

Take it easy, you need to heal.

Most things will keep, it is time to look after you!

You don't realize how much you get bumped and bounced until you ride home after surgery. It's normal. Guessing you didn't have a pillow either, sometimes it helps keep things in place. Just rest and it will calm down.
