Bubbles ... Gas ??

Hello Everyone,

I am almost 7 weeks Post Nissan Wrap

My repair was for  a Large ESOPHAGEAL HIATAL HERNIA with some Reflux issues, probably more than I realized.

I have been reading everyone's posts now for about 5 weeks, and everyone has been very helpful.  It has help me understand just how long this recovery is going to take.

I am on soft foods and going slow but have not had much issue with anything except maybe eating a little too much at first.

My diet that I can pick from so far 

Cream of Wheat w milk

Fried egg

Toast

Tuna salad

Prunes

Watermelon

Noodles

Peanut Butter (just this week)

Coffee Milk (just this week)

Tilapia

Spinach

Peas

Carrots

All canned veggies  (miss my salads)

Chicken Soup with Chicken and vegetables

My question is I have these little bitty bubbles that come up not painful...is this gas maybe.  I burp from time to time but not on command like I use to.  Ideas??

 

Do you feel any relief when the bubbles burst? I would guess they are burps and since they don't hurt and just happen, I'd take it as a good sign. I was told that I wouldn't be able to belch after surgery but I've been able to since coming out of recovery and I'm delighted by that! If they start to cause you discomfort I'd call the doctor but if not, enjoy them!
Keep healing.
