Well, I am about 29 weeks and I have noticed that I do have a lot more gas than normal. I didn't notice until later on though. Also it could just be me. I am not sure if it is an actual symptom of pregnancy or not.

That makes me think of that movie "sugar and spice" pregnant cheerleader and that was a big joke thru out (gas I mean) personally I dont have it that bad w/ this kid but I remember towards the end with macy I did sometimes if I was walking around. (makes for great trips to the mall lmao) may mommy book doesnt say much about it other than its normal and not to let it interfer with your eating normally

Yes it is, with my first pregnancy, before I found out if I was even pregnant gas was a problem, everyone seemed to find it really amusing except me! Afterwards I remember asking my midwife about it and she said it was normal, something about being pregnant and your digestive system slowing down! Do you have a late period?

Lmao...Before I got preggy I couldn't fart w/ out like peeing on myself!!! Now i'm 30 weeks and fart without even knowing it!!! Lmao...They say it's from the baby laying or actually kicking your intestines to cause you to fart!! How wrong is that?!?!?!

I didn't have this gas problem until I hit like the 3 month mark!!

Good .Luck!!
