hi moms! i have been suffering from painful stomach bloating (in just my stomach not intestines). it gets soo bad that im doubled over in pain. i do my best to try and get the air to come out as a burp but i cant. i currently drink a mix of baking soda and water to help along with having mints to relax my stomach and on my worst days i have to sit in the fetal position with an ice pack on my stomach. this is quite an irritation. i did have this issue when i was pregnant with my now 3 year old daughter but i didnt know it was gas pain then i thought it was my baby pushing up. *** yes i am seeing my dr about this in 2 weeks when i have my physical***
i just want to know different ways to calm my stomach bloat. i have tried eating slower but this can come on out of no where and when i get over heated also. please help any advice is great. thank you!
If you read my answer about a chiropractor, you can see how it changed my life. I'm not endorsing anyone in particular but it has changed many aspects that I didn't list in another post. I actually became more regular and my menstrual cycles became pain free. It's just something to look into!
Possibly yeast overgrowth or a food intollerance, or both. Here's a link that tells you about what yeast overgrowth is all about and how to treat it:

And here are a couple of articles about food intollerance:

Hope this helps and I hope you feel better soon.
Please call tomorrow and see if you can move up your appointment. This doesn't sound like it can wait another two weeks. Good luck.
I take little tablets that are a mixture of peppermint and ginger. Even peppermint candy may do the trick. Or peppermint oil
I'm glad that your seeing your DR. because it can often go misdiagnosed & be ovarian cancer that is a symptom of OC..I would drink more water less carbonated drinks.Peppermint & ginger
