Gurgling!

I was sleeved on the 1st and I'm having a really hard time getting fluids in. Every time I take a sip my stomach gurgles and I burp, it's pretty uncomfortable! I'm only a couple of days out so I don't know if this is gas or just something that happens now.

Has anyone else experienced this and what can I do to lessen all the rumbling so I can actually get my Fluid and Protein in?!

Well, my new tummy sounded like a dinosaur fight for about two months, and then it settled down.

Same here! I was sleeved 11/30 & the last 2 days I started to tolerate the liquids more but it's constant growling & moving. At times when I sip something I have to take it slow because the pain starts. It will get easier I promise!

Yes I had that too. I was so uncomfortable with even the tiniest sip that I did a really bad job at getting in fluids and got pretty dehydrated. I'm 11 days post-op and it definitely gets way easier (but my tummy still makes lots of noises)!

Sleeved 11/19 happens every time I drink. It's annoying. Some peoples goes away others no. Try smaller sips for now.

I'm 11 1/2 weeks out and I still have that gurgling. It's annoying. Hopefully it will eventually go away but as for me no such luck yet.

I'm 6 weeks out today and I have that when I eat. It's pretty amusing at the dinner table, but I'm ready for it to stop. I also get the hiccups regularly after I eat, and that is really annoying.

I get the gurgles and pain that comes with it. it's the worst pain that I have experienced. I take smaller sips and it doesn't seem to help. Sleeved 4/20

Try taking some GasX or Zantac. Also try different temp fluids to see if any are better. Good luck.

I was sleeved 4 years ago and after I eat I have a very noisy stomach. No more pain but it has become the joke in the house about moms noisy stomach. I think it's normal.

I'm six and a bit months out and although I'm not gurgling as much, I still have to burp silently a few times to be able to get food down. Though I still get random embarrassing gurgles haha.
