I was too worried about infection, so I said no this time around and I'd worry about it at another time. Like, if she ever goes in for a dental or something.

Should I have done it anyway? I think I can still call and change my mind... ehh??
I personally think that you made the right decision. Just let her deal with her spay and all of her body's energy can go towards healing after that rather then putting more on her plate. Let us know please when she's come out of anaesthetic. I know that you are worried, I would be too. It's hard to leave our babies for a medical surgery. I just had to do it with Missy last week for the first time. Hang in there!
