Stomach growls

[bb8487 2]

Hey, I'm 3 wks out (surgery on the 14th of April). I'm doing great. Feel wonderful, down over 30 lbs so far. Quick question: does your stomach make all kinds of noises & gurgles? It's so loud sometimes. But I don't feel sick or bothered by it. Just curious. Also, is it my new stomach pouch making the noises, or my old stomach?

Yes especially when I eat or drink. It's like it starts it's engine lol

I make noises too.

I think it's coming from the intestines too while processing things and move down the line so to speak.

It usually doesn't hurt and sometimes loud like you said.

I don't think it's anything just annoying at times.

You're doing great keep up the good work.

I am shocked that my little baby pouch is making so much noise. It doesn't seem possible. I'm 3 weeks out today.

I experience those 'growly' noises, too! Not sure where they are coming from, but it's definitely not like the way my stomach used to growl before surgery when I was hungry. I usually experience this during, or just after, eating.

Does any one know who is out of post op more than 3 weeks if these noises and gurgling ever stop?

I am almost 5 weeks out and still have the tummy noises.
