Anyone else a fart factory???

Yes I'm talking about me, not the baby (well baby too). I feel like I've been incredibly gassy since I gave birth! I don't know if its my insides readjusting or what!

Re: Anyone else a fart factory???

  • Eugh.  This is totally me too. 

    I had a little bit of gas while pregnant, and I expected it then.  What I didn't expect was that after giving birth (and now, 3 weeks later) being incredibly gassy, despite the fact that my diet has not changed at all.  And this stuff is painful!

  • I had a lot of gas right after delivery too. I'm thinking it was the colace since it disappeared after I stopped taking it, but that could just be coincidence.
  • Mine doesn't really smell or hurt, but its constant! In the first couple of weeks I couldn't control it either. Hoping it settles down soon!

  • Yup. Add me to the list. I'm 4 weeks pp.

    And I do notice that it's more while I'm BF-ing. And sometimes I can't control them either., which is embarrassing because before now DH has never heard me fart.
  • Omg yes! The first couple days pp were awful. Big smelly farts and I just couldn't hold it in or anything. And I don't generally fart around dh. Poor guy. It's not nearly as bad anymore at 2.5 weeks pop but still gassier than usual and they have gusto! Less smell though. I stopped taking colace a couple days ago. I thought that was the culprit but still farting... I wasn't super gassy when pregnant either. Definitely wasn't expecting this.
