I had surgery Oct 4th, so far im down 20 pounds. I have not had a real bm. im at the puree stage since Oct 12th but still I mostly have liquids. Last night, I took mom to see if I would go, nothing just gas and liquid bm. I don't feel constipated at all just wondering if this is normal.

What does, "I took mom" mean? An emema?

I believe it is normal, it happened to me and my wife as well after surgery.

MOM is short for Milk of Magnesium

Don't I feel dumb. I should have asked my wife.

Don't feel dumb I have question about some of the initials like NSV and some others I see

I'm actually 8 months out and still have not had a solid BM. It's liquid every day. I think as long as things are passing you are ok. Besides, you are on purée so there's really nothing solid for you to pass. I wouldn't worry about it for now, wait until you are on solids and then see what your body does.
