Pulling Feeling?

After surgery has anyone else felt a pulling sensation on one side? I.m only 2 days post op, i feel fine other than this pulling sensation. It stops if i lift up that side of my stomach so that i'm talking the weight.

Anyone else like this? Is it normal? Should i contact the nurse?

Oh good (i don.t mean for your discomfort) but it.s nice to know that there.s nothing major!

Was it straight away after your op?

I wondered if it was where my port is because i can.t feel anything yet.

Mine is always on the side with my port .. Like a cramp almost

Me too especially when I lay on my side at night before I go to sleep.....And I am 3 years out..

So it's nothing to worry about then? Got to admit thought the weight of my stomach was pulling the port down as the wound is oozing a bit too but if it happens to you ladies too then i.ll see how i go.

Thanks

Totally normal :)
