Got my date... September 3rd. Anyone else scheduled this day or in September?

I just asked the surgeon again and he said I can focus on water and we'll worry about portion next week when I come in. They. Just wanted to see if I could stomach it. Tell me now geez after i stressed myself lol

It is so weird how different every surgeon is. Wonder why mine where so high up then?!

I've been drinking water all day, and maybe drank like 5 ozs so far

Thanks Shine!

Just got in my gown and got a prayer from the chaplain.

Alert the media! I just farted, whoohoo! Next stop, you know what.

Just took Gas-X to help mine along!

I thought about taking gas x, let me know how it goes.

does anyone have like a rumble feeling by their incisions? One of mine, every time I take a drink it does that.

Stitcher nothing yet Lol!!

I've had rumbling for a few days actually. I forget what they told me when I asked. It's either the gas working its way down or something but they said its normal

I wouldn't say the rumble is right at my incisions but I definitely have the tmmy rumbles.

Lol!!! When I farted this morning, I was soooo happy! ????????????

Hey everyone! I'm glad to hear everyone is recovering. No bm for me yet either but pass lots of gas. I'm drinking two protein shakes a day mixed with skim milk and sipping water in between. I'm getting a total of about 46 ounces of fluid. Feel like I should be getting more. Doing lots of walking. I'm a little sore in my left stomach but not bad at all. Oh and I have a very gurgly pouch too!

Out of surgery... all went well. But it feels like I was punched in the stomach about a 1,000 times. Ow ow ow

Yeah I still feel mild pain. Know that it will pass. Use your pain pump!!

My pain is where the drain was plus my back

I didn't get a pain pump...
