...and now my belly REALLY itches. They had to shave my stomach for the surgery, and now that it's growing back, it itches like hell.

Hydrocortisone cream. Try something like Bikini Zone.

Did they give you pain killers? I swear I'm slightly allergic. After my back surgery, I was itching my face so much I scratched a couple spots so bad they scabbed over and I looked like a meth addict.

They did, but I never took them

1) try to distract yourself with ANYTHING.
2) It will be better soon

I had a surgery last year too, probably a lot smaller, but probably the worst location for a surgery imaginable, so I totally understand you. What helped me was cooling it a bit.

Just be careful. In my case it even got worse and I became worried because one of the stitches teared up again. (Is that how it's called in english? Sorry, it's not my first language, so the medical terms may be wrong).
