Ok...what is that smell???!!!

Its been 1 week since yesterday and I just started having BM's. Why does it smell so bad when I only drink the same thing day after day? And when will it go away? It's a good thing I live alone...this is embarrassing!

Personally, I didn't experience any extra offensive BM smells after surgery. However, as a CNA I have personally cleaned people who have been on nothing but liquids for a while and it can have a very.....distinct smell/consistency. I'm sure it's likely just a reaction of your body being on only liquids. As long as you aren't hurting I wouldn't be too terribly concerned.

And Poo-Pourri is a game changer for real.

OMG you are not alone. My gas and my poop smelled horrible. My dr said it was from the extra Protein my body wasn't used to. Now I have issues from constipated to diarrhea and sometimes I want to clear the room myself and sometimes there's no smell. My husband has even threatened for me to sleep in the living room. lol Who knows. I am 6 months post op though.

I've always thought sprays for the bathroom were funny. If you stink, you stink. If I go poop and come out people might know I pooped because it smells like poo. Or they might know because the bathroom smells like flower covered poo. Either way it stink, but with spray you have a hint of a floral arrangement.
