My Experience with Gas & Bloating in Pregnancy | What Causes It & How I'm Reducing It

Рет қаралды 74,136

Күн бұрын

In this video I talk about my own personal experience with gas, bloating and gastro intestinal issues during early pregnancy. I also talk about what causes this (an increase in progesterone), what I'm doing to help reduce it, and some other suggestions to help out with this issue.

Okay 7:08 she starts to talk about what she’s doing to help relieve her bloating: 1. Increasing amount of fiber (oatmeal..) 2. Drinking more fluids (water...) 3. Mint tea 4. Pill - (only took a few times) Simethicone pills, ultra strength gas relief Ladies, talk to your doctor first before adding in pills, or any things that can change up your body. Fiber and fluids can also contribute to bloating, so it has different effects on different people. For some reason I found this video very long winded and not very satisfying, don’t take it the wrong way I’m probably hormonal.

The gas pain was so severe I almost went to the ER but I just ended up pushing through it while being in the fetal position for four hours in bed. I just literally tried to breathe through it. I took Simethicone and it did help, I’ve had it with my first pregnancy and now with my second. Thanks for sharing!

But yes can relate to people not taking it seriously as soon as gas is mentioned!

It's too early to know if I'm pregnant yet, but for 4 nights straight now, I have had the strangest and most painful gas and bloating to where I was getting concerned and it's only at night for some reason, I'm fine all day, and I'm not eating any differently than I have before. I'm so hoping this is a pregnancy sign for me. It has never ever been a pms sign. Bloating, sure, but not that crazy crampy painful gas.
