Finally had a bowel movement, was getting scared! Feel better, sitting at the park waiting for my hubby to bring my boys from ore school. I walked here maybe half a block, some discomfort by made

Get ready as once I had my first, they haven't stopped coming (had my first about 28 hours post surgery). They are total liquid and smell horrific but at list my system is functioning, right? I'm 3 days post op so just a day behind you.

I hadn't had a BM 2 days prior to surgery then 3 days in hospital then 2 days home.... Finally ! Pretty horrid you are right but feel much better and hope I doesn't continue.

Im also 4 days post op. I have had one basically after every time that I have soup or anything other than water!!! Did your doctor say it was ok to have oatmeal? It is on my list for full liquids to begin today and I made it runny, but am now worried I was suppose to like puree the oats.......Do either of you have any thoughts? I had an oz of oats and water and felt very full very fast, very different from solid liquids. I hope I did not hurt my sleeve.....Just confused!!

Watery oatmeal is on my week 2 list. My doc didn't say it needed to be puréed. If your doc said it was ok and you didn't have a bad reaction, then you should be fine but call him/her if you have doubts. Can't wait until I can have something other than liquids. Should be able to more stuff Friday!!!
