What about trapped wind in pregnancy?

Digestive problems that can appear during pregnancy also include stagnant wind. Unpleasant sensations in the lower abdomen, abdominal pain, cramps and a swollen abdomen are complications for a pregnant woman. Bloating and flatulence are completely natural during pregnancy. Stopped wind in pregnancy or bloating can appear during the entire pregnancy. The third trimester is the most intense. Intestinal peristalsis during pregnancy can be slowed down, resulting in bloating and subsequent flatulence. Stalled winds are unpleasant, but almost every woman experiences this condition during pregnancy. Inflating or stopped winds do not pose any risk for the baby in the belly. For a woman, they can mean discomfort and difficult movement in an advanced stage of pregnancy.

Stopped wind can occur after eating certain foods. Feelings of pressure or cramps in the abdomen can mainly be caused by legumes, leafy vegetables, pears, plums or sourdough bread. As several women state that gas accumulated in their body for a long time, causing a feeling of bloating and subsequently began to be suddenly or gradually released. However, unpleasant symptoms can also be a sign of constipation. In case of intense pain, abdominal stiffness or long-term constipation, seek medical help.

How to help yourself when the winds are stopped? There are over-the-counter medications, such as Espumisan, which can provide significant relief in the treatment of stomach problems and stopped wind. Probiotics for pregnant women are also suitable. Subsequently, it is best to adjust eating habits during pregnancy. You should eat smaller portions of food and more times during the day.

Also consume dairy products. Prefer leaner meat (chicken, turkey, rabbit), do not burden your stomach with fatty and fried foods. Exclude legumes, nitrogenous fruits and vegetables from your diet - plums, pears, cabbage, cauliflower or sourdough bread. Consume a sufficient amount of fiber - whole grain bread, potatoes, rice. Try to drink non-carbonated drinks. Drink enough water. Some women in discussions recommend drinking fennel tea. However, some women say that the bloating and stopped winds during pregnancy persisted for several weeks and they did not even take medicine. Many women recommend Espumisan capsules or drops as first aid.
