Ok...this is weird stuff....5 weeks postop, but after I always eat my stomach makes all kinds of weird noises. I'm not in pain, I haven't had any issues up to this point, knock on wood, so what could be causing all the gurgling in my stomach now? Bathroom habits are normal....not really worried...just more curious what it could be? Anyone else have this happen or know what is causing it? Just weird is all.

Super common with several weightloss surgeries. The stomach gurgles when empty because of trapped air (long story short), or when full because of gas. Or when stressed because things are being hurried along at a much faster pace than normal (it's part of an evolutionary flight or fight response).

It's completely normal for the noises to change as things like stomach function, shape, size, etc. change. That's just acoustics. :)

It is totally gas! You are gassy! LOL It will get less and less as time goes by. Enjoy the gurgling noises. They will soon be gone. LOL ;)
