  • Yes. Very normal. No food in you just the liquids. Take my advice, never trust a fart!!! Lol. Seriously because whe you finally do go, it's probably gonna be diarrhea. But it will get better.

I think since we haven't had any food in our bellies for a while, it's quite normal. I was sleeved last Wednesday and it was Sunday before that happened for me. The stool softner they sent me home with seemed to help. :)

It's normal. You are on liquids.

I think it's normal too but ask your dr. Mine suggested mirolax, but IDK if that's too soon for you yet or not.

I had mine on the 12th...didn't poo until the 16th and that wasn't much. Then again on the 17th. Both were very loose. However, since then I haven't gone poo at all. It's been 8 days. I called my doctor and they told me to take some miralax which I did today. Hope it helps. I am sure you will go soon. :)

Oh yes, completely normal. I was 5 days out before... <_<

Pain meds can make you constipated so you might want to see about taking a stool softener. My first time going after surgery was awful!
