Is Burping okay? I'm having some gas... and I always feel like I need to burp. Once in a while.. I do get a little burp out. Is that good or bad?

burp just don't puke. Burping is a must. So here you have my permission to burp lol

Take some gasX, that will totally calm it. Good luck

Burping is fine, it is so much better than puking, hiccuping or holding the gas in. I never burped in my life before the band, and now I welcome it when I eat too fast.

Better out than in, I say! I wish I could burp like I used to, but now they are pathetic, little and quiet!

I also have been making little burps here and there.

For me the burps are much bigger and loud and come from deep in my stomach. It's kind of embarassing, I can't make them quiet, but oooh, they feel good.

I wasn't a burper before--but now!!!lol I have to burp, long and loud, or I'm very uncomfortable. I do take Gas-X if it gets too much, it helps a little.

I too have been burping a ton since nbeing banded on the 14th. They seem a little more productive now, meaning I get some relief when I burp. This last week I felt like I had to burp, and all I could get was a little tiny burp here and there even with the gas-x. I never thought I would say how good it feels to burp now, although it seems they always come in 3's LOL! It will be interesting to go back to work tomorrow if i continue burping the way I am now....doesn't matter if I have just eaten ot it's first thing in the AM. I guess it's better than farting or throwing up, and the air has to come out, right?

often when i cant burp i hiccup- then i am scared that i slipped my band!! I take gas x often. if my BF is around he will slap my back which helps!

i am trying so hard to baby my band, not swallow any air, etc. but these hiccups can sometimes not be helped- any suggestions?

It took 8 days for me to burp and boy was it painful not being able to get the air out. I was so excited when I finally had a good one. In fact it is only occasionally when I get a good one up, usually after drinking plain water, but boy does it feel good!!

I burp all of the time. They are definetly louder and longer than they have ever been and my little boy is always teasing me.

Hi, in some cultures its considered GOOD manners to burp, so I say Burp away, my employees always tease me cus when I burp I say sorry its the band, so now they say yea i know its the band. Life is toooooo short to suffer cus of some gas, so GO AHEAD< burp and be merry!!!!! Just not in church or when u are being you know yum yum when you with your honey!!!!!
