I know this for a fact and I have had six abdominal surgeries. The air in the straw while sitting idle is swallowed with the fluid. For us that is not a problem, probably not even noticed. Fresh post op when the gas is floating around, that little extra air with each drink can and will cause pain. Some post ops are lucky enough to not get that bloated painful gas expansion. I hope this helps a little.

Christina,
I am so glad to hear things went well for you. You look fantastic, and I'm sure even better now. I miss you guys. I am back on board. Just been depressed and stuff, but getting better. I am also in school...and with a 4 & 5 year old, working, and being a wife...well, no need to say more, right. LOL.
