10 1/2 weeks pregnant..


Question Posted Thursday August 21 2008, 5:29 pm

So I'm ten and half weeks pregnant, and i feel like my entire body is filled up with air. I know this sounds gross...but all i can do is burp and well u kno. It gives me some relief, but then right after I burp I feel like it fills right back up with gas, which leaves me feeling extremely uncomfortable. The constant nausea is bad enough without this constant gas pain.

Does anyone have any advice on what to do or what can help with both my extreme nausea and gassiness??

I'm desperate!

As always, check with your doctor before taking anything, but Gas-X is pretty harmless stuff from what is written on the box.

When you have gas pain you think you could die from, Gas-x is your best buddy. Been there, though not for the same reasons. ;-)

Pick up a big box, I suggest the mint creme ones, and enjoy the lack of pain.

Finding the cause, of course, is still the thing to do, but in the mean time you will not be in such discomfort.

Because none of us are doctors, & your pregnant (which means you're rather limited on what you can do), your best bet is talking to your doctor or OB/GYN. They would know what's best for you, what's causing all this gas, & how it can best be relieved.
You may not even need an appointment. It could be solved over the phone, or your doctor may want to see you in person.

While you're waiting, maybe you can cut back on foods/drinks like soda (which always makes you have to burp) or, IDK, beans... they make it come out the other end =).

Congrats on the pregnancy =)

Well, you're pretty limited on what you can take medicine-wise, so contact your doctor. I'm sure they would like to know that you are having gas pains. You should contact your doctor when you have any sort of abdominal pain during pregnancy, whether it be gas or not.

You can cut down on gassy foods. Avoid carbonated beverages as well.
