Is anyone else feeling super gassy in pregnancy?

Like upper gas. I can not stop burping especially after my dinner and my stomach feels a bit yucky too sometimes depending on what or how much I eat (again, upper tummy area)

I'm 24 weeks.

Even my DH has mentioned it lol

Yep, totally normal as your womb and baby grows and puts pressure on your stomach! Burping, reflux, indigestion etc...the joys.

I'm also 24 weeks and most of the evening I have constant acid reflux. If I don't get up and walk around after I've eaten I get terrible trapped wind as well. Joy!

I wouldn't say I have reflux, I have no burning sensation and I am on omeprazole from before pregnancy too.

Just horrific gas and an uncomfortable tummy.

I burp all evening and fart all morning when I first get up lol. So dignified.

I had horrendous trapped wind for about a week in second trimester. It was so painful. Peppermint tea helped a lot.

I'll look into the tea.

It seems to flare up after my evening meal, and when it does it doesn't ease until after I've had a sleep.
