Does everyone get Hiccups after eating? I’m a little past 3 weeks (May 7 surgery) and it seems to be happening a little less. Should I expect this forever?

OMG yessss! It's kind of between a burp and hiccup which is completely embarrassing. It can get annoying as it makes me feel like I have something stuck in my chest!

I didn't get hiccups after eating, but I did them them after drinking at first. That lasted maybe 4-5 days or so. I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't think that would last forever. Are you on the liquid phase still, or have you switched to pureed foods? I would think it's happening because you're getting air into your stomach somehow; that's what mine was, anyways.

I get them after every meal. The only way to get rid of them is to have a few sips of Water.

I’m on soft foods. It seems to come and go. Maybe I’m drinking too close meals? I’ll have to gauge it.

I am 7 weeks post op. I often get 1 hiccup when I've reached "full" at end of a meal. But last night I had full blown hiccups for about 30 min. Not sure exactly what caused it. I was also suffering from slime, so I may have eaten a little too much, or didn't chew well enough.

I've been having them off and on for a short period after drinking. I'm still on full-liquid phase. guess its air being taken in with my drink.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
