After just two weeks I think that's still normal. Fluid in fluid out :)

Sorry, three weeks. I had those issues until I started solids. But if you're very concerned, a call to the dr never hurt ;) good luck!

I hate to say this but maybe you should check to be sure you didn't pick up c-diff in the hospital. I would call your doctor just to be on the safe side.

It really doesnt smell like that though i have smelt that plenty of times i have to go there anyways this week

A change in smell is common after surgery. The food doesn't spend as long in our stomach so the color and odor are different than what we're used to. I know (TMI!!) mine smelled like baby poo until I'd been on solids for awhile and every now and then it still reminds of that. If the smell bothers you they make stuff you put in the toilet (a couple of drops before you go) and its supposed to block the smell. Just a Drop is one, Poopourri is another. I haven't tried them since my smell kinda stopped and I stay at home but my mother uses it at work and says it works fine :)

I had it and just chalked it up to the healing process. Mine cleared up, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to check with your dr :)
