Burping?

[teacher208 25]

Is burping from very deep in your stomach normal? I've been banded since May of 2012, and it seems like it just started after my last fill...Embarrassingly loud! My husband thought it was our Rotweiller growling the other night!

​I burp very loud all the time. My stomach also gurgles a lot especially when I am trying to go to sleep. Speaking of gas, I fart too more than before the band. They don't smell. I know some people have said they take GasX. I have never tried it.

I have loud and deep burps and my stomach grumbles like mad, especially when I go to bed at night. farting, yes to that too, but no smells.

Personally, I think the stoma acts as an echo chamber for the belching.

I have the same issues as Dylan. I burp more, pre surgery I use to burp quiet and lady like. My burps are belches persay, but louder than before. I gurgle alot. I also have gas- my hubs laughs because I never farted before I had this surgery, but it is horrible now.

My gurgling helps lull my husband to sleep at nite! And I'm 3 1/2 yrs post op (I used to gurgle alot more than now tho). I also burp alot. I try to keep them quiet when I'm around anyone (besides my husband. I let them roll out with him!). When I take a sip of his soda (yes, I know, bad bad me) I burp for like 5 straight minutes. I only take maybe 2 sips a month of his soda (for all those who are going to reprimand me). Haven't noticed gas from the lower end increasing at all.

You're totally normal! Good luck!

I think it's pretty normal. Before surgery, I too was a quiet, ladylike, and only occasional burper. Since banding, I have been known to startle the dogs to the point that they jump up from a sound sleep and run out of the room looking for the source of the noise. C'est la vie, I suppose. I consider it a small price to pay.

And occasionally, I just blame it on one of the dogs.

I don't have loud burps but I do pass gas... and mine smells horrible. Can't even blame the dog, we don't have one!

I burp, deep burps that sneak up on me and are involuntary. I never know when they will happen, really embarrassing. Not too much farting, a lot less than pre band. Bad breath is s problem though, don't know why.

I have also noticed that I burp a lot when I haven't eaten enough. Weird!
