Is this *burp* normal *burp* *burp* ??

I'm on day 4 post surgery and for the last two days have been burping like mad!!  Is this normal?  Will it stop (oh puleeeze!!)? 

Thanks,  Bonnie

I had to giggle cuz I remember those burps! Yes it will ease up but with me I find that since my surgery I burp a little more often and I also get the hiccups more often.  You can try Gas X tabs that dissolve on your tongue if it really bothers you. You have a lot of gas from the surgery wandering around your body and it needs to work it's way out. Moving around as much as you feel up to will help some as well.

Good luck with the burps and congrats on your surgery!!

AHHHH I just saw that you had the lap band too....finally another bandie!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup...a newbie bandie!  I'm glad to hear that the *burping* will subside.  It's a little embarrasing!!  Thanks for answering!! 

I don't have too much burping, I do notice that when I do, I usually ate 1 bite too many.   Hope the burps ease a bit for you Bonnie.  Hugs, Kathy 

Hey there! Welcome! As Sukie said, you are full of air from surgery, so as that gets expelled, the burping will ease up.
Now, I am not sure of the difference in the burps with RNY and Banding, but I still burp more than I ever did. I think tho, it is certain foods that are creating this. Last night I made a soup with a bit of spice to it, and some kidney and great northern beans in it, and the burps have been crazy. (at least its coming out that way huh?) hehehe.
This too shall pass, at least for the most part.
