Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Stomach Pain

February 1, 2007 — 6:11 am

This morning I woke up with one of my horrible stomachaches. So no temping today. At first I thought it was my ovaries, which didn’t make sense since it was so painful… then I thought it was just a full bladder – a very uncomfortable one – but when I got up to pee and that didn’t help… sigh. I couldn’t lay there in bed anymore afterwards, just got worse.

I realized while laying there – if my horrible stomachaches are caused by gas, which they seem to be, is this is what it’s going to feel like post-lap? They pump gas into your abdominal cavity for a better view, and I’ve read several places that talked about horrible pain afterwards as the gas is absorbed slowly. Oh I do not look forward to that.

For now I drink hot chocolate and try to burp a lot. :/ Yarg.

    You know I’m a wus when it comes to pain… But I had no gas pain after my gall bladder surgery – which was done laperscopically. I just felt bloaty/gassy. The pain was from the incisions and muscles. Hope that helps some!

    Hey, maybe you should eat lots of cucumbers, they make u burp quite a bit, as also buttermilk. I munch on cucumbers as I watch a soap- raw slit cukes in one hand, dipped into salt & pepper on the other hand.
