Killer gas

[chocolatecatty]

Oh the shame! I have had absolutely killer gas for the last few months and was just wondering if it's caused by anything in particular? The only thing I have changed in my diet is cut down HEAPS on my water intake (I just went off it suddenly and only have about a 750ml to a litre a day, not including hot milos!).

Seriously, it's baaaaaaaaaaaad. My car stinks. My poor daughter.....luckily she can't speak properly yet or I'm sure she'd be telling the world I'm trying to kill her!

Ok people! NO LAUGHING! If you don't have any answers for me then show some respect!

ETA: in saying that, I appreciate you coming forward confessing the same malady as myself. Strength in numbers I say.

I'm still laughing!

I think it is cause by the lack of room in your bowel, they baby moving, moves everything in there and causes more farts! Well that's my guess anyway!

ok found this:

Early on in pregnancy, large amounts of the hormones relaxin and progesterone are at work, relaxing the muscles in your body — including those in your gastrointestinal tract. This makes food move more slowly (good for baby) but can lead to indigestion and gassiness for you (bad for anyone standing, sitting, or sleeping near you). In addition, your expanding uterus places increasing pressure on your rectum, which can wreak havoc on muscle control and lead to the passing of some serious wind.

PS. Still laughing!

arrrhhhhh cat!!! i serously wouldnt worry!! i always have bad gas i find things like chesse leafy vegies make me fart! i blame pretty much everything for making me fart, farting right now actually! just think of the advantages, clearing out the shops = you having the checkouts to yourself, toy sales all to your self etc....just make sure your loved one walk in front of you and not behind!

Ah Meegm - I deliberately misunderstood your post just to get a laugh.

I heard that having fruit after meat is bad for gas....

Jols, you chronic gassier! Funny funny.
