Post op bowel movement

[AutumnPunkin 313]

I am curious. How long after your surgery did you have a bowel movement?

I had my first one although very small on day 3 right on schedule with what doctor told me and have had one every morning since, I am 1 week out today. Doctor told me to take Miralax if needed because it has stool softener you dont want to have to strain or push. Thankfully nature did its job but I have some handy just incase

I am still waiting, I am 7 days post op sleeve to bypass revision. Talked to the Dr, he told me to continue to take Colace nightly and Miralax.
