Glad it didn't get delayed. Did they start you walking yet? That is the best way to deal with gas pains...walk..walk...walk

Congratulations. The more you mive the faster the gas pains go away. I changed position in bed alot too and that helped. I had horrible gas pains when I had my kids caesearean, but they were grearly reduced after RNY because of moving around. Good luck on your journey.
