remedies for upset stomach and burping?

mauied08

now that i have the constipation handled, now im dealing with extreme upset stomach and burping.does anyone know of any remedies to cure this. the upset stomach hurts so much, that it has made me lose my appetite?

my friends told me to drink perrier, tonic water, club soda, it just makes it worse with the burping. I'm burping like 50 times a day. the only time when it stops is when i laying down then when i sit up...burrrrrrp!

my doctor gave me a script for stomach pain which ive been taking with gas x but thats not working. im going to try mylicon which someone said worked for them with the gas problem. i notice also my upset stomach goes away once i burp then later on i have stomach pain again. thanks for your help

How long have you had this symptom?

I ask because it sounds similar to a bug I just had and not typical of PG symptoms.

not a bug. saw doctor said its normal. told me to take b6 vitamins w saltine crackers

Are they wet burps (e.g. a little vomit mixed in...gross I know)?  If so, that could be a sign of acid reflux.  I have it and I have it really bad.  It's also accompanied by a feeling that something is stuck in my chest/throat.  Tums don't work for me so I take Zantac 150 2x a day.  It helps out immensely but does not cure the burps 100%.  I feel for you.  I find it almost as bad as the nausea I experienced for 21 weeks straight.

well taking b6 vitamin 50mg before breakfast and dinner has really taken away my stomach pain, but i still have the burrrrps. which r really gross and annoying. my dr. said to try gasx but that hasn't worked. then he said mylicon which i cant find anywhere but i heard its the same as gasx. ugh. i hope im not burping throughout my whole pregnancy, ewwwwww. lol

yikes. i thought this whole nausea thing is only in the first trimester, the 2nd trimester you're back to your normal self until 3rd trimester. i guess it comes to show you that every pregnancy is different. hope you feel better now.
