Hi everyone. I had surgery may 19,2014. Everything went well but I still have a lot of burping. Has anyone else experienced this? What could I do too prevent it?

I'm 7 months post-op and still dealing with the excessive uncontrollable burping. I think that's one of the biggest negatives that I've experienced after surgery lol, it's so embarrassing.

Aside from something like Gas x, not sure! It's a common problem.

lot of burping.

awwwwww man, was that YOU i just heard

some/many/most people burp or have a runny/sneezing nose

this happens when your cute little tummy starts/gets full

it can be embarrassing, but if this is the worst thing that ever happens to you...........

i didn't realize i would burp so often/and loud when i came home from hospital

one day hubby was in other room, and he heard my extra loud burp (you probably did too!! )

he kindof came running in the room and we had a good laugh

(i was a little sore, so he laughed more for the both of us!!! )

at 2.5 years PO, i sometimes still have a good burp or two

but i don't think theres anything that can prevent the situation

get used to it while you are losing weight, and whistle while you "have" to shop for new clothes

good luck

continued speedy recovery

I'm a little over a year and a half out and burping and stomach gurgles have become my new normal!

After a meal if I am able to get away I take a 15 minute "burp walk" to work out the gas privately.

I'm 4 weeks out and burp a lot after meals. The first burp is usually my signal to stop eating so I don't really mind it. I just cover my mouth and try to keep it quiet.

I'll be a week post op on Monday. The belching and belly girgles are getting better. I haven't needed pain meds of or thrown up for a few days. Feeling happy

I'm 3 years out and have the burping sounds still. It has gotten better with time but still does happen. You get used to it and as time goes by they decrease.
