2nd Trimester

Any cures for painful gas?

I'm at work untill 3pm but I'm having the WORST gas pains of my life.  I have to curl up to get through them.

Does anyone know a good cure or a pregnancy-safe-med I could use?

  • A good fart.

    No, in all seriousness the only thing i know of besides a good fart would be to take acidophilus once a day.

    My farts must be bad ones cause it keeps coming back, lol.

    Is acidophilus something I can pick up or do I need to see my dr?

  • OMG! I had this last night too...

    I could hear the gas rumbling loudly through my body before it finally escaped. It was the WEIRDEST thing. My husband made fun of me all night until I stunk him out of the bed. Mwahaha! Serves him right after all these years of stinkers he's graciously shared with me :)

    You can get acidophilus in any store that sells vitamins. It is called by its name. It also helps regulate your digestive system. Beano actually has it in it but a smaller amount.

  • If you're belly hasn't popped yet, just lay on your stomach on a flat surface.  Wait a few minutes, a fart is nearly 100% guaranteed.

    If you can't lay flat on your belly, try the downward dog yoga pose.  Another natural fart-inducer.

  • I asked my doctor about this and she said that I could take "gas x" pills.

  • My doctor recommended Maalox last pregnancy and it was a miracle. Last time I Looked for it, it wasn't on the shelves - some sort of manufacturing issue.
