My period is delayed by a few days, and I've been feeling bloated and gassy, farting quite a bit. My friend, who recently got pregnant, said she had similar symptoms early on. Can increased farting be a sign of pregnancy?

Yes, it is actually very common during pregnancy! The hormone progesterone relaxes your muscles, including your digestive tract, which slows down digestion and leads to a lot of gas. Don't worry, just drink plenty of water and rest.

Instead of wondering and getting confused, just buy a simple 50-rupee pregnancy test kit from your local medical store. It is the most economical and accurate way to know for sure before you plan any doctor visits.

Oh absolutely, the pregnancy bloat is very real! Hormones can do some funny things to your tummy in the early days. If you suspect you might be pregnant, take a quick test and hopefully you get some good news soon!

During my early weeks of pregnancy, I was so bloated and gassy that I was literally hiding in my room! It is a very normal symptom that nobody really warns you about. Try eating smaller, frequent meals to help ease the digestion.

I didn't know this could be a symptom of pregnancy at all, I always thought it was only morning sickness. Does this gas issue start right in the first few weeks, or does it happen later? I would love to hear from other moms.
