Stomach Noises

Okay, I am 22 no out, in maintenance, and my stomach is SOO LOUD now with gurgling sounds etc that it is embarrassing at times. Today I went to have a massage and OMG, I know the lady thought I was nuts! Last night laying in the bed my husband said , " What is that NOISE?!!!!". Lol. Anybody else experience this. Seems mine has gotten louder as time goes on

I'm 2 weeks out and have a terribly loud stomach now.

I get the gurgling, both in my stomach and in my esophagus. I had the esophagus gurgle with my band but the stomach gurgle is new. I also get "whining" - not sure how else to describe it. And typical digestion sounds but on a greatly amplified scale. Apparently it woke my husband up last night. :wacko: I sure hope it doesn't get louder!

I was sleeved on 1/23/2012, my stomach has been noisy from the start. It's my gremlin, in my tummy, growling, LOL.

It's odd that yours just now became that way, after 22 months. Are you eating differently or new foods?

I can see how it could be embarrassing in certain situations. Check with your doc, but sounds normal as long as no pain or other symptoms.

My hubby has nicknamed it a "BART". Belly+ Fart= BART. I am a year and 4 months out and I still have those loud noises! I am waiting for the alien to pop out!

Thank goodness i am not the only one. At work we eat lunch at a large conference table..u can hear my tummy gurgling so loudly...my coworkers think i have constant gastro problems!

This post made me laugh right out loud. I was sleeved on Dec. 28th and had noticed that there are times that my tummy was loud and made noises resembling the birth of an alien being coming out through my flesh. What made me laugh was that just last night I was laying awake in bed in the middle of the night because it was warm, my cat was sleeping at the foot of the bed in a snoring state. My tummy made a very loud and long growling sound that woke her up and scared her off the bed, she sat up a moment, looked around and ran under the bed. I laughed about this all day and shared the story with my co-workers. I am happy to live with the unusual sounds as my life is already healthier and happier and can only continue to get better. Thanks for sharing...

I get it too. Actually just ate so tummy noises are present.

Hi Nannie! I just realized sleevie is quiet now...once in while he makes noises, but NOTHING like he use to...so I would say it does get better eventually :)

Lol! I'm 8 weeks out & Tiny Sleevie Timkins over here does get loud sometimes, on a regular basis...I think it's funny, what with the gurgling, burping and new hollow sounding poots I let go...I just consider it the soundtrack of my new lifestyle! Lol!

Terrilynndrew, that cracked me up! The soundtrack! As I lay here listening to the gentle rumbling And tumbling of my VSG. It's sorta like listening to my own "noise" machine! Lol.

Sleeve4, how long since u were sleeved? I think we are close together.

My tummy makes noises too, I have just gotten used to them. The other day my hubby was layng on my tummy and it was making a lot more noise than usual. He was like what is in there??? I guess it sounds a lot louder when you lay directly on it!! :D :P :D :P

Lol, mine is soooooo loud and it embarrasses me at the worst times. We nicknamed my little beast the "angry chihuahua" because it sounds like it's always growling (and it's small now!)

My stomach noises are so loud that it is embarrassing in my meetings at work ! Why does it happen so often and when does it go away?

I'm 3 years out, and it still does it. I joke that when they removed the Grehlin producing part, they added gremlins, lol

Maybe try not eating or drinking before or during meetings, if possible. Or just do tiny sips during, if a long meeting
