Unless things have changed dramatically it is likely that this surgery
will involve removal of uterus and tubes, but not ovaries.  In any case
the continued milk removal will be the key.  Someone else can probably
give a guess as to the length of stay.  Heaven knows it seems to get
shorter every year.

Hale rates Tramadol as L3=Moderately safe.  With a T1/2 of 7 hours,
pumping and dumping for 24 hours should be sufficient.  (Since you
specifically mentioned the anaesthesiologist, I'm assuming that this
medication is being used for surgery not for post-op pain.)  After that
she can pump and save until she is reunited with baby.
