You should try Lactulose. It’s a liquid that you can buy in massive bottles in any pharmacy. I got mine at Sainsburys. It is very gentle and works really well. X
Thanks girls, al have a try xx

I keep hearing about girls being bloated/ having a massive belly after their ba.. Is that just what it is? A bloated feeling? I don’t want to go through this then pile on the pounds! Does anyone know what causes it? Xx
It can just be trapped air, but quite often it’s the pain meds, the morphine / codeine ones. my hospital supplied me with laxatives as well as painkillers 🙂
Ok so it’s not actually weight that ur putting on, and ur belly does go down after?! Xx
I’d like to know the cause too as I’m now like it. Something they give you, whether its the anesthetic, the stuff they bring you back round with, or the painkillers?! I’ve not taken the painkillers tho to be honest. Ive stuck with neurofen and paracetamol as I think it’s the cocodimol that makes you feel sick.
I’m on the senokot and prunes now tho.
It does seem to be water retention to me, nothing permanent.
Xxx
You of course add the physical weight of the implants 🙂 but after a week or so you should be back where you started plus the weight of the implants. I’m 19 days post op now, and I actually weight exactlly the same within 100g of the weight on the day I went in, so that means i’ve actually lost at least 680 grammes 340 implants x 2 🙂
The co-codomol / morphine derivatives say usually on the packet that it can cause constipation. the ibuprofen actually usually says can cause diarrhoea (if eat without food) 🙂 So you would have thought that the two would balance out 🙂
Lol yeah of course, the implants! Well that’s good to know! I wouldnt be happier with a permanent roundedbelly!! I can cope with being bloated for a week or so! And not bad if you’ve lost weight too 🙂 Xx
A think most ppl get it. It took about a week after a stop my meds for my belly to go down!! Think it’s mixture of the anistetic and pain meds. But it’s not permanent!! Xx
Iv put on a stone through Bordem eating haha but lost it in last 5 days through pain of pheumonia ! Most girls pile on a few sadly … But it’s Xmas u can’t notice much and the boobs will balance u:). Weight isn’t a feature .:) u can easily change it anyways I’m 4 weeks p.o and I guess my bloat around tum and face went round 2 weeks ! Avoid salt just drink lottttts of water!:)
Lol o dear! Nah I suppose I wouldn’t be too bothered if I had some nice boobs to cheer me up! Xx
I had the bloating for 4 days, it was so painful and the worst part of my BA!! Although the bloating pain has gone, I’ve been left half a stone heavier and I have a nice pot belly 🙁 I’m hoping it will drop off again as I haven’t eaten any differently than before the BA! It must be the meds :/ but its depressing me as none of my jeans fit and my leggings are digging into me 🙁 and all I want to do is enjoy my boobs!! X
I’ve been told to eat lots of high fibre foods and fruit veg etc before op to help with this 😉 x
