39+5 and terrible gas - help!

Hey everyone, I’m very very pregnant and having some terrible trapped gas - so bad that it feels like contractions! I’m also getting very loose stools. I could also be bloated but it’s hard to tell being so pregnant.

Does anyone know of any remedies I can take so late in my pregnancy? My poor old partner is suffering the brunt of my terrible gas!

TIA

I'm just in early pregnancy but was having painful trapped wind too. I've found that Fennel or Peppermint tea seems to have helped. I had a Google and they were suggested.

Rennie Deflatine tablets are good, you just crunch them in your mouth they’re abit chalky but not too unpleasant.

Could it be labour? Loose movements and contraction feelings!
