BigFatLoser 331 Posted March 20, 2013 Ugh I hope this won't be a problem. I don't mind burping, but hate the discomfort that goes with it. I do it a lot....mostly after sipping. It's also a lot more of a hiccup/burp. Hate that! Even no the burping continues, will it always be so uncomfortable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

playlikeworldchamps 595 Posted March 23, 2013 I figured out that it was drinking Water that was causing the frequent and painful burping. But I am able to drink iced tea, light cranberry juice, lemonade etc with no problems. I will keep trying to see if water gets easier but just wanted to say that you may want to try other fluids besides water if painful or frequent burping is impeding Fluid intake.

SkinnyGirlComing 0 Posted March 23, 2013 I had my surgery on 3/8 and started feeling the gas and pressure in my upper ab once I was allowed to start liquids. I realized it was because I was swallowing too much air. I had to make adjustments to the way I swallow. It's still hard and there are times that I forget but the gas reminds me immediately. Gas X sheets do help and I hope this stage ends soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
