Anyone having painful gas discomfort?

Question

I'm 6 weeks today. I have been having gas discomfort since the beginning (so much so I kept thinking it was my period coming until I found out I'm pregnant). I take gas x and it helps but sometimes it's so hard to distinguish from real cramps! And obviously regular cramps makes me so nervous because I'm worried about miscarriage. I haven't had any spotting or real cramps but anytime my gas feels like that I start panicking! I don't want to stress about this when it's just gas. But today I have taken all the gas x I can and it's still so uncomfortable and bloated. Anyone else going through this or have tips?

Answer

Mine hurts so bad!! I got told in my last pregnancy to drink warm
Boiled water and it's fantastic! Seriously try it. Gets it all up! X

Answer

I had that at 5 weeks and it finally went away with stool softeners that my doctor told me was okay to take and every since that I have not had gas problems anymore. I'm now 7weeks.

Answer

I have had the same thing. Where I feel like I can't move. I find that it helps if I lay on my left side. It relaxes me and helps it pass faster

Answer

I have this and it was the same with my last pregnancy as well. I must say, it got worse the further along I was. Sometimes I would sit in the bathroom crying because the pain was so unbearable. Just make sure you're eating the right things so you're going to the bathroom regularly and it isn't worsened.

Answer

I had this with my second pregnancy and now having it with this pregnancy as well.  I went to the ER during my second pregnancy because I thought something was wrong. It's crazy how painful gas pains can be, I can't even stand up through them sometimes. Hang in there, it will pass.

Answer

Yes!! I went to the ER my gas pains were so bad! I thought like you, the pain was the worst possible scenario but it was just gas! Lol

Answer

SO BAD. It gets worse when I lay down. I was almost crying last night, it wakes me up. Moving around and walking is the only thing that helps. Oh and if you lay face down and tuck your knees under hips then stick your butt up in the air it can help to release gas 😂
