Gas-X strips and lots of walking will make it go away!

It will get better!! WALK, WALK, and more WALKING!!!

And if you have someone available...have them massage your shoulders and back. It will help!

and not to sound gross but if you need to burp or fart ...just do it! (that came from the mouth of my nurse lol)

My 5 year old nephew said this to me 3 days aftter i got home from my surgury when i was rolling around with gas pains. Walking like crazy and trying hard to do whatever i could to make it stop. He looked at his mother and asked what was wrong with me and she replied gas.  He looked at me, came over and put his head on my tummy and heard the gas rolling around and looked up at me and smiled .... he then says ......

OH  Auntie that's not Gas!  Those splosions from your body and that  rumbeling in your belly is just the little dwarfs they put in your body that have bombs and blast away the fat after surgury. Then the gnomes come and put it in the mining cart! Dont worry.

With this i fell into a chair and laughed so hard that I couldnt stand up for half an hour. He continued his story about the dwarves and gnomes for abother 20 minutes. I just dont know where he comes up with this stuff....... he is really smart and we are amazed at his vocabulary at 5.

Now everytime i feel gas pains i think of dwarves and minng carts. LOL 

but seriously.... yes, it will get better hang in there! walk and be sure to sip. If you drink too fast it only adds air to the pouch and hence.... more gas.
