So bloated I can't sleep...

merrim

I was wondering if anyone else was dealing with severe bloating at night.  I feel like there's a balloon in my stomach!  Anyone find relief for this? I'm trying to up my fiber intake a bit to keep things moving better so I don't know if that is the cause, but it's mostly just been the past few nights when it hits me....

I'm still under the care of my RE (she'll release me after an ultrasound on Thursday) and haven't yet started with a regular OB so I don't really feel like I have a doctor yet to ask this non life-threatening question.  Thanks for any help you can give!

Mine was so bad if I rolled on my stomach I woke up in pain. I used gas-ex my dr said it was ok. Or if you want a natural method try lemon water.

I had that too around 6-8 weeks. Try drinking some tea or going to the bathroom. Im sorry its so annoying. But it will go away!

Ug no fun. Mine was bad too. I drank hot green/herbal tea before bed...it usually helped! Also with my current nausa too.

If you can releive some of the discomfort by farting, then do it. Yea, its not lady like, oh well. Someone on here told me to lay on my left side. I find it works laying on either side, and you will get rid of some of the gas.

DH suggested that I lay on my stomach with a pillow under my tummy. It worked and I was able to fall asleep after being awake for 2 hours! GL

Hopefully you are sleeping now.

I take Gas X and it helps a lot.  It's on my doctor's approved list and I was desperate a few times.

Some of the fiber I have taken has caused more gas. Fiber One bars are the worst offenders.
