Yep, it's pretty normal. I've been a little gassy my entire pregnancy. I am coming up on 34 weeks and I think it's a little worse than it was before.

yes, i do actually break wind way more that 1 an hour... but when it's not as bad it's at least once an hour... usually it's about every 5-10 minutes though lol..

but now i'm just happy to know i'm not the only one with gassious problems lol

I burp and pass gas all the time now. My husband says that I am the one in the relationship that acts like a guy now. I don't mean to act like a guy but I can't really help it. Besides, it hurts to hold the gas in!

maybe we just have warped sense of humours!!LOL Laughing

if you cant feel comfortable to fart in front of your partner your pretty much doomed. Laughing either that or you'll always feel like your going to explode!!! Smile

ih i've always been comfortable enough to do it... i just wish he could have a sense of humor about it... i mean me and my dad do... every time one of us farts we say "it's a mouse on a rocket again. wonder where they get the jet fuel from?" or something stupid like that and it always revolves around a mouse on a rocket lol.

All these comments are hilarious, I'm so glad it's not just me. Constipation was the worst symptom I had, so I had to increase my fiber intake which has resulted in major gas. It's hard to be feminine for my husband when I burp and fart all the time and can't fit into my clothes. Last night I farted so loud that my husband gave me the strangest look, and I burst into tears (thanks pregnancy hormones). He laughed and held me, but I was mortified. What surprises me is the sheer volume that is released at one time. Can my baby hear this?
