I'm 3 days post-op EVERY SIP brings on more gas unbearable gas. My liquid intake should be at 64oz by day three and I'm hardly taking in 20 and that's a stretch. Help!!!!!

Are you walking enough? Walking helps the gas go away. Try going to a park or the mall and walk for a good hour.

I had bad gas pain for about a week it is no fun. but it is normal. Keep drinking just sip, sip, sip, you don't want to get dehydrated. Walking relieves the gas so keep moving.

I'm on day eleven and by far this is the worst pain I've ever felt! Even my Multivitamins are giving me gas I feel like walking doesn't help at all. Gas x strips takes the edge off but I seriously want to cry!

Try Phazyme. It's over the counter and their little bitty gel pills. My dr recommended them. She said I could take two before going to bed a 1 twice a day. They really helped me.

Thanks everyone! I was able to get 31 out of the recommended 64 oz on day three. I'll try again tomorrow.

If it makes you feel better you are doing better than me. Im day 5. It takes me all day to get in 16 oz :/

i had gas pains for about 2 weeks. i did everything you could think of to get rid of them gas x, 3 hour at a time walks, even having my boyfriend try to burp me like a baby. the gas pains with this surgery were even worse than my c sections. keep walking and sipping it will pass it just takes time.

too bad the docs cant squeeze us out after the surgery!
