What to do if you are pregnant and have flatulence

Stomach bloating can occur after pregnancy due to reduced secretion of stomach acid and prolonged gastric emptying time. In the case of gas, you can take the following methods to adjust: First, a small number of meals, do not eat too much at each meal, you can eat 5-6 meals a day. Second, eat more fiber, vegetables and fruits, and reduce the excessive intake of high-protein, high-fat food. Third, drink more warm boiled water, as too much feces accumulated in the colon, has been piling up, gas will be relatively obvious, so to have enough water to promote defecation, can also reduce gas. Pregnant women should never drink cold water, so as not to cause intestinal colic, but also to induce uterine contractions. Four, massage, when intestinal peristalsis is poor, you can help intestinal peristalsis through massage, but never in the middle of the stomach massage, the general uterus is mostly the center of the abdomen, so the massage can be gentle massage on both sides of the stomach. Fifth, take a walk. You can consider taking a proper walk after meals, or rest in bed if you have vaginal bleeding. Pregnant women who are usually healthy, normal and without risk factors can take a proper walk for about 20-30 minutes after meals for 30 minutes to help intestinal peristalsis and reduce gas.
