My 5 yr old had hers out in dec last year (also adenoids too)

She was pretty much back to normal after a week and that surprised me. She had two weeks of day care and we stayed home and kept things calm.

I'm surprised its only day surgery. The 1st night after the surgery was bad for us. I freaked out as she vomited dried blood everywhere and I needed the nurses help with it all. I would have flipped completely if we were at home. Doesn't happen often but still scary.

Hope I haven't freaked you out.
