Thanks again sisters for talking me through this point!

Yay!!! I'm glad your post-op went well and your Dr. was able to provide an answer to the question that most of us have wondering about that weird shifting/settling feeling. Thanks My post-op isn't until January 8th. So i'm hoping that a lot of these pains/aches/weird sensations inside the abdomen/painless throbbing feeling down there will be gone by that time.

It was 7 weeks when I realized my insides felt normal again! Guess my intestines had finish adjusting to the extra space they had to fill.

Hope all is well with everyone!
