Bowel movement

Hi All, I am 8 days post-op & still haven't emptied bowels. I have taken Benefibre once since I started pureed foods on Tues but just felt bloated & uncomfortable. Now I feel as though my stomach has hardened & bloated even more. I am having approx. 1.1L fluid a day which includes 300mls protein shake. Dr told me to wait for the 'urge' but thats not happening!!

My question I guess is, should this be taking this long....Help please!!

    This is too long! Address it today. I know the teas can work. There's alway Milk of Magnesia which also works quite well.
