When you get pregnant your body slows down the digestion of your food so that you absorb more nutrients for you and the baby this causes more than usual gases from your food breaking down because it sits longer in your stomach..not much we can do about it but remember its all temporary and for a greater good. happy gas passing ladies !!!!

I felt a lot better when I stopped drinking milk. I'm lactose intolerant which is actually quite common so maybe try to cut down on milk or drink lactose free milk. Also, mine smelled so bad because of the eggs I was eating. Eggs make your farts smell!
