I know if I could burp more I'd feel better. Is there a good way /trick to get yourself to burp? Step by step process please.

A swig of diet coke would do it but since you are so fresh from surgery I wouldn't try it..... my idea is get hubby to pound on your back like you were little Lauren.  I hope you feel better quickly.

My help was always a sip of diet coke - it doesn't take much....

Are you feeling better now, an hour later?  Hope so!

If you're alone, beat your chest....think Tarzan!  If you're lucky enough to have a big person nearby, or even an energetic little one, have them pound you (yep hard) between the shoulder blades.

In a pinch standing by a wall and repeatedly bouncing your back against it works too!

Usually if I try diet pop it just makes it worse.

Rub your tummy.  Or try and move around a bit.  Its uncomfortable.  I know.  It gets better.

Be careful with the diet coke, though.  I only use soda when I know I need to get whatever is upsetting my tummy out quickly.  When I have food stuck it takes just one or two quick swigs and out it comes.  But be careful!  Its not pleasant.

Thanks for the tips guys!  I walked some more and it came out. What a yucky feeling though, hate it!

I was over a year out before I could burp. I just couldn't do it after surgery and now it's still not that easy.  Sorry to hear you're struggling with it too!  Hope everything else is going well!

I still can't burp really. If I try to burp, i throw up!

Please spay and neuter your pets!
