Keep moving as much as you can to help dislodge and dissipate that uncomfortable gas...and if it is OK with your doc, pop some gas-x...mine said it was OK as long as it was chewable, not the gelcaps or even the meltable tounge strips...Feel better! and congrats

welcome home!!!  Sorry I had not seen your post yesterday I would have mentioned the gas x chewables, they taste good and help a lot.  The gas pain was horrible for me too especially up in my shoulder!  I took one a day for the first week after I was home from the hospital.  Like everyone said walk as often as you can, my doctor wanted me walking for 5 min every hour.  You sound like you are doing great..  Congrats on being home and I am super happy for you
