Tummy Rumbling

[NtvTxn 1,262]

My tummy talks and rumbles a lot after I eat! I am seven months out and my little tummy will make fairly loud noises after I drink or eat quite a bit!!! In the mornings when I start drinking a cup of coffee most of the time, not usually after Breakfast or lunch, but after dinner (is it because I eat a little more maybe??) - and it seems that after I drink a glass of milk I gurgle and make a lot of noise! Am I eating and drinking too fast? The glass I drink milk out of is frozen so it's really cold. I keep glasses in the freezer. Could that be it? I am at a loss. Is this normal? If so, how long will this continue??!!! Does this happen to anybody else, any guesses on why it is going on? Taking Pepcid or Tums really doesn't help. I'm just not sure why it seldom happens after breakfast or lunch but mainly at dinner and after my morning coffee and when I drink this cold milk.....which I do twice a day....morning and night. Oh, when I eat a snack it make make a few noises, but not normally.

Mine has only done it occassionally (like the califlower...it made my tummy gurgle and talk a LOT for about 20 mintues right after eating) and it happened more when I was first out in the first couple of weeks. But it doesn't happen all the time.

Do you remember if your tummy was talkative before surgery? I would be like you and wonder if it will last forever or if it will eventually quiet down? I think it might be a good question for the surgeon at some future follow up appt.

This is totally new, post-op. I have access to the nurse, I can call her or text her. It bothers me enough that I should ask her I guess....I'd at least like to know how long to expect it! 20 minutes is about right, I am going to make a concentrated effort and eat slower and when I pour my morning glass of milk in a little while, I'll "sip" it and see how that works. Maybe it is as simple as that....I did notice that I am quieter this morning with my coffee, and by the time I'm on my second cup, I have stopped making any gurgling sounds. It seems I've seen someone 'say' something before, but I would NOT swear to it!

Hi. I am also 7 months oot and My sleeve does this all the time... I laugh at it because it is so loud and funny ..my family tells me that they hear it also. I guess its air ..Maybe we both are eating too fast and gulping alot of air. it feels like air to me , but lots of it.(LOL) I see my Doctor in 2 weeks for my check-up and I will have a list og questions.. but everyone is different . I love my sleeve , but sometimes I manipulate it to eat more.... i got alot to learn and I will get this weight off. Its a journey.... So far I 've lost 58lb since april 2010. I have atleast 75lbs more to loose..

Hi Kymmi12 - I have to laugh, it's like my tummy has a life of it's own! I did a test this morning with my milk. I took about 25 minutes to drink it with little or not talking back! I think I am at least drinking to fast, I will make a concentrated effort with eating tonight. There is SOOO little food on my plate, it gets cold so fast....I have never HAD to take little bites, not since a couple of months out, so since there isn't pain, I guess I haven't really thought I was eating too fast. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!

My tummy is so embarrassing! It makes weird loud rumbles. Usually it's just my family that hears it, but last night I went to the movies......AND OMG IT WAS LOUD! The lady next to me heard it and I think she thought I was passing gas...lol. When my family hears it they ask if Im hungry, I say no. Even when I drink Water I makes these sounds. Hope this doesn't last forever.
