My 3.5year is due to get tonsil and adenoids removed next week having been on the waiting list for a year . I’m panicking about the recovery- how bad will it be? Have been told up to 2 weeks at home from daycare/ preschool, lots of painkillers . He’s not the easiest of children to have confined to the house at the best of times nor am I and I am stressing about levels of pain and how difficult he will find it. He also has a lingering cough at the minute, if still there or day of operation will they postpone? I have booked annual leave but will still have to do the school run for older siblings as have no support.
any advise / support from those who have gone through this before ? They say encourage normal eating after but he’s picky at the best of times so again stressing about this!
