normal ?

[jillianrose34]

Is it normal to have horrible gas during pregnancy and how far along did anyone start having it? I'm 5w3d and it's soo bad.

It can be embarrassing and uncomfortable when you’re experiencing more gas production than normal and it’s all due to the increase of the hormone, progesterone, which begins in early pregnancy. Progesterone (as well as relaxin) relaxes the smooth muscle tissue throughout your body. Unfortunately not even your digestive tract is left unscathed! This slows down food digestion which results in more gas being created in the large intestine, as a result of food that is not fully digested by enzymes.

So yeh normal :)
