😂I'll be able to stroll without having to hold my stomach.

Hope everyone is progressing well on your respective end. 🤗

Ladies contour undies help with this. After my csections and this surgery and other abdominal surgeries I've had I use them to help stop the "my stomach feels like it's going to fall out of my body " feeling. They help

I too am a side sleeper. At night I sleep with compression underwear on to help with the "stomach gonna fall out feeling" ya get when sleep on ya side

My surgery was on the second ..down 16 pounds. Started pureed over the wednesday with approval but now I've stalled out.

Got out of surgery at 10 am. Have been in terrible gas pain. I have walked and walked and they will only give me Tylenol for it. How long did your guys gas pain last? Maybe tomorrow morning it won’t be as bad??

Raise hell advocate for stronger meds for yourself or have someone do it for you. When I tell you I was on a self delivering morphine drip after surgery.

I had gotten a minor cold. I took cold medicine right away. I stayed in the house and stayed away from people to care for myself. By the 3rd day I was much better. Sending you healing thought and prayers that you stay health and strong for your surgery.🙏🙏🙏

I had a full out cold plus allergy issue 8days before surgery. As long as you don't have a cough or breathing issues they will usually still do the surgery.

As luck would have it as soon as I was over my cold my period started...so I have surgery with my period

I didn’t experience that at all. I guess I’ve been super lucky. All liquids have gone down pretty well. I’ve had Protein Shakes, broth, Jello, yogurt and some black bean Soup today. One more week of the full liquids. How are you doing now?

Better but I can still feel food move through my stomach. Maybe I'm just being over sensitive lol.

I feel strange today...so either im not getting enough Water or Protein One or the other ...I'll figure it out before end of day tho.

Congratulations! I had surgery on the 1st and you're absolutely right! The first few swallows of liquid are extremely UNCOMFORTABLE! 😣 At three days out- some sips are better than others. I get this bottleneck feeling where the liquid sits and then all of a sudden fizzles down into my stomach... It's taking some getting use to...

I just wish someone would have told me that before hand lol

Hey guys...vhad surgery on the 2nd ...what day is it now??

Just a FYI.. because I've read all the things and no one has ever said this so.

For the first few days when you put liquid or food in your stomach . It hurts and you can feel it. Other than that things are great

November 9th here! So excited. Starting my pre-op diet tomorrow, and so nervous about hunger.

Currently in the middle of my pre-op. After w couple days it's not that noticeable. First couple days were the worst
