stomach "growlies"

I am sitting here, trying to slowly eat my Jello after swallowing Soup waaaayyy too fast. I finally feel up to more liquids since I kinda skipped lunch. I'm all calm, doggie laying her head on me. All of a sudden, she pops her head up and just stares at my stomach. I have been having air bubble coming from my stomach as I slowly eat some liquids. They are making her head vibrate and she doesn't like it. The worst part, for her? She can hear them too. I think it is the funniest thing ever. She is starting to stop laying her head on my stomach adn more on my legs.

Has anyone else had this problem with almost non stop bubble while eating anything? Or drinking?

Yes!!!! Im two weeks out and I still get these its kind of frustrating cause I don't know what I need to do to calm them down. I don't know how far along you are but it does get better, it still happens but not nearly as bad

Hi that's so funny! I'm 13 weeks out and my stomach growles like crazy. Im not sure what calms it down but this has been happening every since I came home from the hospital. I assuming it can be gas bubbles or something. I'm sorry I can't be of much help, just know you're not alone. Good luck!

My sleevie does this too. Noisy tummy, noisy burps!

My bubbles all wanted to come out as belches for the first 3 months; now it has calmed down quite a bit. I still get the growlies with certain foods and with my calcium citrate liquid. My dogs look at me funny, too.

I am so glad you posted this because my stomach makes the loudest sounds, too. I am only a week out, but every time I drink something, the noises are terrible. It is not a hunger growl, but something quite different. I guess we are all in the same boat.

Same here. My tummy makes strange gurgling sounds everytime I eat. I am 6 weeks out from surgery and had been told it gets better but not for me so far! It was so bad on Sunday morning that I had to get up and leave the church service. The woman in front of me turned around and looked at me every time my stomach made a noise. I finally gave up and walked out! Too funny.

For about the first month or so I could NOT lay on my left side in bed, my stomach would just make the most horrible nosies constantly. Long drawn out blurping and moaning sounds. The first time my wife and I got amorous post-op it sort of ruined the mood for a few minutes as we both busted out laughing because of all the comical noises. :lol:

I'm almost 9 months out and my tummy still makes crazzzzy noises. I have an appointment next Friday and I'm going to ask about this. I hope it's not a bad thing, this late out.

Count me in! I am 4 days post op and only sip liquids from a teaspoon. It is hard to believe that such a little bit of Fluid can make my tummy sound like something is about to erupt! :lol:

My Dr prescribed Nexium for me since my surgery, on the days I forget my tummy growls, if I remember to take it I seem to do much better controlling the growlies. My Dr says it is the digestive juices.

It is not so much my stomach that does it, but my throat! Soon as i eat or drink anything it gurgles and sounds like a kitchen sink trying to drain.

It is so annoying!

I am on 17 days out, but Will it ever stop?

Kelly,

exactly. I get it in the tummy as well as the throat. It tickle but is annoying. I wonder if it will go away when i go to more solids.

I take a pill for stomach acids, it doesn't do very much, but rid me of pain when I wake up and before dinner.
