2 Days post-op
Here I am suffering from these stupid gas pains! I must say that the surgery went much smoother than I thought it would. I was only in my hospital bed for 24 hours then back home I went. The only problem seems to be these gas pains. My incisions look perfect and I have no pain that requires "pain pills". I have only been sipping on water today since I was pretty nauseas yesterday so I couldn't drink much. Tomorrow I will introduce some protein, nutritionist said to try 2 ounces an hour with water every 15 minutes in between. I have only been able to get one ounce down at a time so far without feeling bloated so we will see. I have no desire to eat regular food yet so that's a positive! My husband has been so supportive and said to me tonight that he can't wait for me to be able to go to the gym with him. When we first met, I was the gym fanatic, he never worked out before that. All I am waiting for is the gas to go away!! Anyone have any ideas of how to make this subside quicker???
