Rebeka McLean 0 Posted August 23, 2011 So I'm now 5 days out. I'm noticing now that I'm able to drink more and get more in me, that my stomach is really noisy! While I'm drinking I'll take a sip and there will be couple very audible noises as I guess it's dripping through my band. It's even louder with my Protein Shake (which is a little thicker)! It doesn't bother me all that much but just wondering - is that part of being banded? Or is that just for now while my stomach is still getting used to everything?

JimR915 21 Posted August 23, 2011 Very normal. I am 10 days out and get the gurgling. Not as much recently, but I guess it depends on the day and what I drink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noturningback15 45 Posted August 23, 2011 I started making gurgle noises about 8 months when i got a good fill. When the room is really quiet others can hear it too if they are sitting very close to me! LOL! It's weird! It sound like a sink draining or something....

Martha78 0 Posted August 23, 2011 LOL, I happened to be drinking a Protein Shake while reading this forum and listening to my belly. The sounds are very weird but I have also wondered how long will they last. I am on day 4 post op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
