We're worried.

Of course we're worried, she's our baby, but we know we're doing the best thing for her. It's just she's so young, only 5 months, but it does seem to be recommended now to have pups spayed before their first heat cycle, so we've taken the plunge. We'll also ask the vet to take a look and remove any baby teeth that seem to be causing her a problem , although we haven't noticed any issues ourselves.

I've booked today off work so I can make sure she has a good feed around 6.30pm, as she can't eat anything after 7pm.

Tomorrow is Pete's day off, so we'll both take her to the vets in the morning, then he will collect her once she's awake enough to come home. He has booked Thurday off, and I have booked Friday off, so someone will be there to keep an eye on her through until next week. She will hopefully be over the worst by then. We've got a couple of onesies to try to stop her from worrying her stitches, and will ask about pain meds in the morning.

For those of you who have gone through this, is there anything else we should consider?
