GAS !!!

[californiagirl]

OK -- this is embarassing, but..............


Do you know why I would have terrible gas for 3 days straight?? I feel great, have an appetite, no D*, and am fine. The only thing is, persistent, terrible gas!! I know, not very ladylike and gross, but any ideas on how to relieve it, besides the obvious solution, which I'm getting tired of[img]smileys/smilies_11.gif[/img]


I swear, if this keeps up, my damn butt is gonna vibrate right off my body!Edited by: californiagirl

Haha, been there done that, got the t-shirt.


Are you eating a lot of veggies and/or carbs? They tend to cause gas. Dominos Pizza always does it for me.


You can try Beano, it's supposed to work. I usually just let em rip. Also not very lady like [img]smileys/smilies_02.gif[/img]

[californiagirl]

Thanks for your reply 65Roses~~~


I've been letting them rip for 3 days, and I keep clearing the room, my feelings are getting hurt-haha


I will try beano, I just keep forgetting to buy some.


I LOVE broccoli, and ate some, so maybe that's what it is, but I've never had it for three days like this!! EEWWW

[bethany]

i would say its the brocolli for sure. i love brocolli too, but my mom didn't cook it very much at home. when i came to college they offered it in the cafeteria regularly, so i ate alot of it, and had the same experience. i think that's definitely it, it won't always cause it for you, just when you eat it more than usual like that!

Fruits and veggies do it...I have IBS so I am always a walking fart machine. The gas-x pills really help too, you may want to try those if it keeps up!!

[sparky2004]

Different kinds of cheese can give me aweful gas......I end up stinking myself out of the room......


I suggest staying away from dairy products for the next few days as that can add to your gas problem...especially cheese.


Your system will sort itself out, don't worry. [img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]

OMG, I nearly feel off my chair when I read that! LOL!


why not try some GAS X, I find that works well

[californiagirl]

Thanks guys, I really do appreciate all of your advice!!!

One more post here I too have had that problem many many times before....and i never can figure it out...but i have come to the conclusion....that maybe it's too much protein or carbs like someone else said....i also think i get so backed up sometimes...i have ibs really bad...so that comes with the territory....but i don't know.....of course brocolli/cabbage/fruit/beans/ or anything like that will do it.....i find that with ibs that's most of my problem......lord if you find an answer let me know........it's most embarrassing and believe me i live in a house with 2 sons and a husband who always competeing for the best farts in the house.

KATE,


If you also have a dog in the house, they always win hands-down!!! Man, have you ever smelt dog-farts?? Men/boys do come in a very close second though [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]

[donna1216]

You know, I have been having the same problem since I had my son--I thought something was wrong with me!!!!

[kate1966]

Well, I don't have a dog...but I have in the past...and wow!!!!!!!!!! You are right about that...they are the worst.....


It's weird...since i commented on this post...i think i jinxed myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been having that problem ever since. I don't know what the problem is...but i know i have had hard boiled eggs several times this week...that is probably the culprit....and also i went and at right much brocolli last night[img]smileys/smilies_03.gif[/img]The next few days will probably be insane!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate it for my boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]It's going to be pay back time for them[img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img] Kate

Wow, that is weird! I have been having HORRIBLE gas for the past few days. this morning was the WORST! I had such bad pains, I almost went to the ER! I made it to work and I am doing a little better, but yikes, it sucks!! How is yours now? Did anything help? If, so, what?


Thanks,

Hi Mary,


Well, I still have it, just not as bad, and when I pee (sorry), I get a horrible pain in my lower left side. Weird!


Well, I went to the store today, and as my daughter and I would walk down the aisles, she'd get a whiff, and yell, "MOM !!!", and I started laughing so hard I had tears!! Just the look on her face was priceless! I did get some bean-o, so we'll see if it goes away..............

[madisonsmom]

I wish I could let them rip[img]smileys/smilies_09.gif[/img] I am taking prenatal vitamins and the iron is constipating me terrible.


I am in so much pain...with gas![img]smileys/smilies_09.gif[/img][img]smileys/smilies_06.gif[/img]

[californiagirl]

Oh no !!!!


You think you may have something?? It started as gas? Have you taken anything for it?

[crystalmom]

Madisonsmom....


that pregnancy constipation is killer! I swear every time I actually went, it clogged the toilet! [img]smileys/smilies_11.gif[/img]


After I had him, a couple days later, I 'went' and ended up calling my husband (now ex) in tears saying I just had another baby! Pregnancy really is a bummer....good thing you get something good outta it!! LOL!
