breesue 0 Posted January 8, 2011 Okay, does anyone else have gas really bad that you burp/belch? The last 2-3 days has been really bad. I open my mouth and woops...I belch. Not very lady like either! My husband asked if I drank a soda or something. And I haven't had a soda in a year and a half! hahaha I have a 10cc band with 6.5 in it. I got a fill a week ago, it's been pretty tight. Eat small amount now every 3-4 hours and been drinking plenty of Fluid. So much Fluid that I get the hiccups all the time. Anyone else have the burping? Thanks!

AFmom 3 Posted January 8, 2011 I burp much more frequently since having lap band. I also hiccup when I drink too fast and when I am getting to the point where I need to stop eating! Like you, my burps just seem to come out, without any warning! I think that it is pretty common Michelle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattie7632 24 Posted January 8, 2011 Not a strange question at all! Yes, I get burps out of the blue, and the hiccups a lot. Not quite 2 weeks post op so I haven't yet figured out what they are signaling, if anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissannde 41 Posted January 8, 2011 Burping is my soft-stop signal. Meaning when I'm eating and start burping, I better stop or at least slow waaaaaayyyy down or else the next thing I know I'm over full or stuck. I think with gastric surgery, increased noises are the norm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracyNYC 4 Posted January 9, 2011 I too hiccup when getting near the "full" mark. The other night I had regular hiccups, not food related, and my 9 year old niece said, "Uh-Oh". I asked her why she said that and she said that once you start the hiccups, then you get sick.... I felt bad and did not realize it was so obvious to her.
