  Chloe just had hers done 2 weeks ago.  She did great.  I was a nervous wreck also.  She didn't lick much.  I'd tell her to stop and she would.  The day of the surgery, she slept alot.  I gave her pedialyte (orange) and boiled chicken.  She wasn't interested in eating much.  She was pretty uncomfortable.  The vet gave me 4 days of pain pills to take at night.  The next day she was pretty much back to herself.  I just kept her from jumping and running.  She never had problems with constipation (although I kept mineral oil on hand)  I brought her home in a crate.  Definitely call the vet to check on her.  I called mine twice and they were super nice.  I hope yours is the same.  Please keep us posted.  She will do fine, but I understand the worry.  I too kept myself busy all day and it helped.  Prayers going out to Julie, Tori, you, and your mom.
