I gave birth 8 weeks ago and I can't control my farts at all! They just pop out! And they are really loud! It's embarrassing!!

It does get better, I promise! I'm super squeamish about farting in front of my own husband or mother. Imagine my horror when walking through a cafe this massive fart just kept blaring out of my bum. I couldn't stop it!

I think it started easing up around 12 weeks and was gone completely a few weeks after that. Just keep up with your pelvic floors and it does improve. BlushThanks
