2nd day post op and actually feeling really great! Had some issues with nausea until they got me off of the IV Pain meds and onto oral,now I am tolerating it wonderfully. Drinking fine, getting up and down with no issues and walking like a fool. Only issue....I feel like my bottom is going to fall out. I have never prayed for a fart...well, until now that is.   How long will this last???

It should be coming along quite soon!  I did after the third day.

You need to be walking around to dislodge the bubbles that are stuck.  Keep walking.

Should have happened by now....or keep walking.

After blowing up the abdominal area like a balloon, it takes a while for those little air pockets to dislodge completely.  It can take a couple of weeks.

I was three days post op, but I felt bloated for a week or two. I never thought that passing gas could feel so good.
