Burping and farting? 3days post op

All I do is belch. Take a sip? Burp. Move a fraction of an inch? Burp. Stay still? Burp. All I do is burp. Is this normal?!?? Doctor and nurse doesn't think much of it.

They also said I need to fart by Monday or call them. No farting yet. I've felt a storm brewing since the car ride home (I'm looking at you, stop and go traffic). I've walked a bunch too! Atleast 20 minutes for the past couple of days.

I was sleeved on 7/18. Yesterday my belly was distended and painful. I was so glad when I was able to burp and start getting the gas out.

Choice between breaking wind or being in pain is a no brainer. Let loose and let it rip.

Just make sure you're over a toilet the first few weeks when you do. You can't trust farts too soon after surgery TRUST ME!

^^what he said!!

I'm a month post op and I thought the burping would never end. Now I only burp when I start to feel full. That's my sign to stop eating.

So burps might become vomits?! Also did you all force yourself to drink??

Sometimes- after I eat- I feel like there is a bubble in my throat and I need to burp. However, if I make myself burp I will throw up. It has to happen on its own.

If you will MAKE yourself drink every few minutes now, it will become a habit and won't be so hard to later. That has been my experience.....

When I was fresh post op. I would always burp but it came in 3's and they weren't baby burps they were full grown roaring burps!!!

More burping and farting after surgery!?! My husband will be soooo pleased!!!! Ugh.. pppppfffffftttttt.
