I'm glad she's feeling better this morning! I'd keep that collar on her for awhile, the last thing you want is chewed stitches!

An idea for the onesies: Wash them in hot water and dry them on high heat, then try them on her again. Emma's onesies fit loosely at first, and then I had to wash them a few times-they fit a lot better after a couple washings.

I was also going to tell you that if your baby all of the sudden has a few accidents in the next 7-10 days, that's normal. Lots of people (including myself) have questioned why their little furgirl is fairly well potty trained, and then reverts after getting spayed. I'm not sure WHY this is, but I've heard of this a lot. My personal theories on this are that since all the muscles get moved around in surgery, they don't know they need to go until they HAVE to go, and since the muscles hurt, they avoid going until the last possible second, so they go wherever they happen to be. I kept Emma on a thick blanket with her food, water, and a pee pad right next to her, and that helped while she wasn't feeling well. She had a couple accidents in the week following the spay, and then was back to being reliable.
