Wow...that's awesome you girls! I didn't expect so many replies. Thank you soooo much. My mum went in for a hysterectomy about 2 weeks ago and had absolutely terrible wind because of the gas and I think perhaps that is what has really freaked me out. So what you gals have said has certainly made me feel a little more comfortable with it all.

Thank you again....but if there is anything else you can tell me I would be very pleased to hear it :-)
