PO Day 8 Swelling and Bloating! 350cc Overs

Hey so I am 8 days PO and still very bloated literally I look pregnant! Very annoying as I have been eating clean and stopped taking Co-Codamol after day 3, but I just still don’t feel right. Is anyone else suffering from the dreaded bloat? 🙁

Also I still seem to have swelling pretty bad, but it alternates from each boob every other day, is this normal? …worrying a bit too much maybe I don’t know haha x

Im only just starting to feel less bloated and im 11 days PO – i asked my nurse and she said this can last a few weeks so try not to worry even though i know how depressing it is! I have one boob thats still swollen but the other one isn’t – never heard of the swelling alternating though so can’t help you there im afraid! Xx

Hey Hun I’m 8 days post op and still really bloated, my right boob is still really swollen but my left is fine I’m keeping up with the ice which really helps, try not to worry we’re still early days although it’s really frustrating x x x

Thank you ladies, I am over thinking things I guess. No pain no gain! Happy healing x

Tracey you mention using ice what do you do?? Haven’t been given much post op advice and my op is next week so want to prepare and buy things I’ll need to help me heal?

Thank you!

I was exactly the same was very bloated for about 2 weeks and I’m not sure if I still am now on the 3rd week or weather I have just put on weight ? I also was swelling but just used ice and ibuprofen to take the swelling down and also codine for the pain xx

I’m 350 hp overs almost 2 weeks and the bloating has gone down and swelling is going slowly but surely ?, I’ve been drinking loads of green tea and water with my meals, my nurse said the bloating is to do with the anesthetic leaving your body, it was a pain but I feel like I’ve lost weight now lol x

I didn’t suffer with bloating much but I’m 3 weeks post op and my belly button is stretched still so I must have some bloat somewhere in me surly lol not unless this is my new belly button now haha xx
