5Th Day Post Op, Bloated

I'm on Day 5... I'm not hungry.. I'm following my liquid diet as instructed by doctor... I'm still sore where my large incision is and it hurts to get up or lay down still... I had a hernia repair with my surgery on Oct 4th. I am very bloated.. My stomach is HUGE. Is this normal?. It's just bigger than usual....

    Yes totally normal. I am 3 weeks post op and still a bit bloated. Gas pains come and go, mostly if I have been sitting and still passing gas like mad.
