5 weeks out

Everything has gone great since my surgery. I have had head aches, but those seem to be getting better. All in all, I think it's all gone well. I am on a regular diet with no restrictions. My concern - I still have a lot of pain in my stomach area. At five weeks is this normal?

Is it inside your stomach or at your incision sites? I will be 6 weeks post tomorrow and still get pain at my incisions, especially my umbilical site.

It's not around my incisions, nor does it feel like I've been doing crunches. I had the single incision procedure, so maybe it's different for me. Maybe it's the internal incisions. When I walk up or down stairs, I have to hold my stomach so that it doesn't "jiggle". Also, when I sit for a long period of time, I have to bend over for a bit until things work themselves out.
