I am extremely gassy since this Monday!!

I am not generally a gassy person, so for it to continue this long, I know it's not something I ate.

It's getting worse, and I work in an office with people coming & going constantly so I am having to go run down the hall to an empty office to let it out (lol, picture it?!). And spraying my body splash stuff.

My obgyn is a voicemail system, and they don't call me back for at least 24 hours.. anyone know if you can take gas-x? Or a good home remedy for it? :smile2:

I was googling, some people say don't take anything during 1st trimester, another site said it's fine.

One of them mentioned pre-natal Vitamins cause gassiness, so I wonder if that's the culprit!

My ob gave me a list of OTC meds I can take and although there isn't specifically a gas medication, you can take tums or pepcid. Maybe they'll help.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
