Smelly farts! Early pregnancy

Am currently 5+2 (or 5+4) and I am having the most disgustingly smelly gas!!! Blush
To a point where I want to hold it in as I cannot stand the smell! It's like rotten eggs or cabbage.
Even my ds (3.6) says I'm smelly!!
I've not changed what I'm eating, but is there anything I should avoid that's a normal every day thing that won't be helping?

I don't remember this first time around!

TIA :)

I got that! It did pass, sort of.

WinterBabyof89 · 26/02/2015 19:17

Perfectly normal & something you could experience all the way through pregnancy! I have no advice re diet I'm afraid..

Me & DH find it hilarious how disgusting my ass becomes in pregnancy because I found it so embarrassing in my first pregnancy.. I'm now early days into my third & waiting for the day when DH has to hang his head out the window for fresh air hahaha! I am pretty courteous though and try to contain it in the bathroom if I can get there in time

Good luck with the pregnancy.. I'm a week behind you at 4+4..

hmm, dunno if it'll pass.

since i had DD 3 years ago, i have had very smelly farts.
normally around ovulation or periods, but definitely very smelly farts.

i never had such bad (regular) farts until i had her.
It most probably started in pregnancy.

sorry Wink

Mine were so bad at the weekend I thought they were dhs. And kept shouting at him for making me feel sick

HoneyIsBeePoo · 26/02/2015 21:33

I just used to silently roll DH's window down and cringe. That's how he knew...

Luckystar82 · 26/02/2015 21:34

I had that

lasted about 5 weeks!

SueV14 · 26/02/2015 22:11

Oh it's not you, it's the baby chatting inside you! Always blame it on the baby, that's what babies are for. Or on the dog, if you have one. Grin

SueV14 · 26/02/2015 22:12

Farting, not chatting! Stupid autocorrect.

FeelTheNoise · 26/02/2015 22:20

Yes, I've been so windy Shock the absolute rippers start late afternoon, at least 2 hours before I get to go home Confused

FeelTheNoise · 26/02/2015 22:21

AND I got really upset for the baby as it must be really noisy and scary in there Grin

ImpatiencePersonified · 27/02/2015 09:33

Yup, I hear you, and also... my sphincter control seems to have gone on holiday.

At 10+1 I can walk through a room with my independent fart machine and have no control at all.

I blame the cats mostly.

Choccywoccydodah · 27/02/2015 10:07

Honey that made me actually lol!! Grin

Thanks ladies, we do have a dog but even she doesn't smell as bad as me ha ha!!

Glad it's a pregnancy thing then, like some of you said, I can blame the baby :)

It's really bad, and burping all the time too. I had someone from the gas company (LOL) come by yesterday and had let rip right before he rang the doorbell. I'm sure it was his least pleasant visit of the day!

Choccywoccydodah · 28/02/2015 08:39

Grin Newbian that is hilarious! Did he think you had a 'gas' leak!!!!

I had this from about weeks 5 to 10 then it calmed down, but it's back with a vengeance now at 25 weeks. OH is thrilled...

I’ve been farting my way through this pregnancy, not necessarily smelly but very loud. DP finds it hilarious.

jadelouis97 · 03/05/2019 22:01

Hi I’m just wondering if I can have some advice, I am 22 an just found out I’m around 6-7 weeks pregnant with my first child!! I’m wondering if there is anything I should or shouldn’t do and whats your best advice for me to keep myself and this baby healthy, I am currently feeling very tired, and a lot of morning sickness! I just want to be able to enjoy it and I am currently not able to as in just feeling so run down and sick all the time!
