Try avoiding any carbonated drinks, like soda. Sometimes ice cream or other lactose items in the diet can produce bloat, in which case over-the-counter lactrase tablets taken with dairy foods can be of help. Also try avoiding any very spicy foods. You might also just be swallowing a lot of air. If this doesn't work, see your surgeon again.

I had two c-sections and each time I had excruciating gas bubbles and pressure for about a month (off and on) afterward. I think it is caused from there being pressure on your intestines from something foreign (baby, tumor, etc) and then when it gets removed, air bubbles form in there and cause gas. But because there was something in there for a while, there may be a "kink" in your intestines that makes the gas hard to pass, thus causing the pain and bloating associated with the gas. If it is still giving you trouble after what you think should be a normal time or if it gets worse, call the doctor. There is never anything wrong with being too careful. Hope this helps.
