What's Causing Painless Movement In The Left Abdomen After Abdominal Surgery And Hysterectomy?

I had a hysterectomy 3 years ago but often have visible movement in my stomach that feels like a baby moving with no known cause. I am 35 with 2 children ages 10 and 17. Just prior to this starting several years ago I had abdominal surgery and was cut hip to hip. I've noticed over the past week it is getting more frequent and starting to be irritating. It does not hurt and usually is on the left side of my abdomen. I'm pretty certain that I do not have any worms or parasites. What could be causing this?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your problem and this is nothing to worry, this could be peristalsis wave, this wave are generating inside the intestine for propagating the contains ahead, and this more visible in hunger state, eat something whenever you see something like this, no need to take any medicine this is more physiological phenomenon, take care and have nice day.
