snow25 188 Posted December 25, 2012 I'm 5 days post op and have not had a BM. I on all liquid diet and urine output is fine. My doc gave me milk of magnesium but I haven't taken it yet. Think I'm still a little afraid of BM... Even though its gotta happen. Very curious how long it took folks to have a BM post op? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBdoodle 483 Posted December 26, 2012 You will eventually have one, I think I was like 6 days post op. Just remember you are on liquid so there is not going to be much solids. It took me a while to get regulated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
