Hi!
I just had my gallbladder removed on Monday the 8th of June. Laprascopy with 4 incissions. I feel great 4 days after just mild pain BUT my stomach looks like i am 9 months pregnant. I am starting to worry. Is this normal?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is normal. They inflate your stomach to do the procedure. It takes a little while for it to go all the way down. Just walk as much as you can and that will help.

Oh my gosh! I had mine out June 1st and have the same issue. I completely look pregnant. I am having trouble buttoning my pants, but don't have weight gain on the scale. I'm all belly. It's better than last week, but not much. Hopefully it won't be permanent.

It isn't permanent! Mine went down in about 10 days I guess. I wore pants with elastic in the waist at first...
