JohannaMae 9 Posted June 14, 2012 My port is located on my wasteline next to my belly button. Does anyone have their port there? It's uncomfortable when I wear close fitting pants or a belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
judych 225 Posted June 14, 2012 My port is located on my wasteline next to my belly button. Does anyone have their port there? It's uncomfortable when I wear close fitting pants or a belt. thats where mine is also. i found it quite uncomfortable for about a month. now im losing more weight around the waist and im still wearing the larger size pants its not so bad. next week it will be a bit sore again though. Last fill it was sore for a few days, i had to put some padding in the waist band in that area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatarmywife9205 0 Posted June 14, 2012 That's where mine is but closer to my belly button. I hate there because at times if I go to stand up it pulls and it hurts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ready4change2 19 Posted June 14, 2012 That is where mine is also. I am only 4 days post-op and it does hurt to stand. It feels like it is being stretched. But i assume that it will get better. I hope! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blpchick 50 Posted June 15, 2012 Mine is to the left of my belly button and up some. It's just above my waistline. I was banded 5/24/12 and it is still sore if I bend or reach to my left. I sure hope it gets better. I woul hate for it to be like this forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jenn1214 120 Posted June 15, 2012 Mine is an inch or two below my belly button, so no low rise jeans for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmoody821 44 Posted June 15, 2012 Mine is going to be right below and between my breast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamg 29 Posted June 15, 2012 That is where mine is also. I am only 4 days post-op and it does hurt to stand. It feels like it is being stretched. But i assume that it will get better. I hope! Mine did the same thing but now I have no pain. My surgery was May 11th and the pain didn't last to long. Just make sure you don't lift over your requirements and don't strain when using the restroom. I learned the hard way on the straining part. But all will be good before you know it.

Sombra1718 55 Posted June 15, 2012 I was wondering if the port is directly beneath the incision or do they put it up past the incision. I have no idea where my port is yet... I was freaking out too much in recovery to ask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shellvw 21 Posted June 15, 2012 I have four incisions like mid belly in a line about an inch apart. I guess they are like 3 inches above belly button then I have a 5 th incision like 2 inches below my boobs right in the middle. Port is second middle incision from the left in the line.

ChubbyGal 9 Posted June 15, 2012 My port is below my breast in the middle of my stomach. I had my surgery 8 days ago and it is still sore. It is in a bad place for an underwire bra. my pot is about an 1/2 below the incision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shawnapowers 1 Posted June 15, 2012 Mine is about 2 inches to the right of my belly button and about 2 inches above it, I hate when it pulls! It feels so weird!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blpchick 50 Posted June 15, 2012 They put my port directly under my incision and it makes me worried for when I get my fill because seems like it would be more painful putting the needle directly into the incision even though it will be mostly healed by then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JessRess 14 Posted June 15, 2012 My port is right under my ribcage on the right side. No problems so far *knocks on wood* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aummie58 19 Posted June 15, 2012 Mine is on the left side about 4 inches from my belly button. It hurts now when I am driving and and have to bend. Hoping it will get better with time. It is still noticeably swollen. I was banded on June 5th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
