Louisa i was very bloated after my op, and i’ve read that i lot of people are! Mine lasted around 9 days or so, because i had a wedding to go to on day 9 and i remember having to try really hard to keep my tummy pulled in so i didn’t look pregnant!!!! Normally my tummy is quite flat. My tummy wasn’t painful tho’ – do you think you might have a bit of constipation (sorry i know thats not a nice subject) maybe worth taking some Senokot? xx
i had 460cc partaily unders x
im gna leave my jelly belly for few days c if it goes down then i will call the nurse x
Also, eat plenty of fruits and fresh juice. Vitamine c also makes healing faster.x
Sorry dear.. I think you should call the emergency nurse. I feel really sorry for you and hope for the best. I think you better stop crying and be optimistic.. If you stay positive, you might feel better. Call your nurse, clean your body and wear some makeup.
Give your nurse a call, and im sure she will put your mind at rest. Remember you body has been put through a lot that it’s not use to.
What cc did you have, under or over x x x
thanx alex. i really have had enough but i must say i havent been for no 2 since weds morn, but i dont think its that its kind of to the sides of my tummy and wobbly and painful. i hate all this i just want it to go away
sorry i just feeling really sorry for myself today
Hey
Don’t panic, im sure it’s nothing.
I had a swollen tummy but mine was solid and slightly painful, unfortunately i had to take laxatives to cure mine. It might be worth getting some and seeing if this is the problem, give it a couple of days then if there is no change call the nurse. Also drink plenty of liquid water is best if you don’t mind it and if you have one place a warm hot water bottle on your tummy this may also help x x x
