Bowel Noises

I am slightly concerned about noises I'm still hearing in the night that sometimes wake me up. They have gotten a lot better along with my other symptoms, but I still wake up solely because of the noise every other night or so. So, my question is: If my stools are passed easily, pretty large, not flat sided, fully formed, should I be worried about a possible obstruction simply due to gut noises?


I get the noises around 1-3AM and use the bathroom within 10 minutes of getting going in the morning.

Someone just mentioned to me...I've been using Ensure a lot recently. Usually 1-2 per day, sometimes right before bed, but not always. I guess 100 fat calories in it would be rough for me and cause some noises...

Yes with Crohn's the chances of blockages are higher. But I think that as long as you're able to go, have no pain or abdominal swelling and have well formed stool, that the noises you hear are probably just your digestive system going thru it's paces.

My stomach makes lots of noise too! I do notice it when I tend to have a larger meal than usual or eat dinner later than usual ...
