The nurse suggested some to me I bought but haven't taken it...but I know this is weird...if we are not eating anything..and only doing liquids/ broth what's gonna come out?

only liquid going in is only liquid coming out for me! I was sleeved on 9-6 and I finally had a "bm" yesterday. One of the best pieces of advice I got from a friend is NEVER trust a fart. I am very careful about that and thankful for the advice!!

Good luck. Everyone is different and it will happen sooner or later :)

It was quite a bit of time before I had a BM. Well over a week and I was worring about it also. I finally took Miralax and nothing for like 2 days. :)

i would get worried if you have not had a BM before this weekend hits. Stool softener should help. Anesthesia can cause Constipation after surgery. If no BM by this weekend than i would take miralax and call you doctors office
