Trapped Wind

[Tattybear2706]

TMI so sorry in advanced.

I can burp but cant trump.
Im in agony with sharp stabbing pains all over upper stomach and my side. I had diarreah yesterday so don't know if thats whats caused it.
I havent trumped for i think 2 days! I had a cry this morning as pain so bad!

Ive tried windeze, deflatine, laying forward with my butt in the air, laying on my side curled up, massaging my stomach in a clockwise motion!

What else can i do? It really hurts

Sorry to hear you're suffering so much!! I feel your pain, I get trapped wind quite frequently anyway but during pregnancy it's excruciating!

For me the only way I can get it to ease up is to lie flat on my stomach for a while. Sorry you haven't found anything that works for you, though maybe ask your doctor or midwife for some advice? I hope you feel better soon!

I tried Gas-X, an over the counter medication that is safe for pregnancy. It is my new best friend. I have heard that Beano is good as well, but I have not tried that.

I find a hot bath tends to release trapped wind it's weird but works!
