Anyone else has the same problem? What are your tried remedies?

Thanks!
Gastric problem is very common among pregnant women. My stomach was killing me when I was about 5-6 weeks pregnant. Then I did some research and found ways to fight this problem. Now I am at 9 weeks and it's getting better.

Things you can do to help:
1. Eat slowly to avoid drawing air into your body. When you eat fast you actually swallow a lot of air which are then trapped as air pockets in your gut.

2. Do not eat raw veggi. They produce a lot of gas when being digested.

3. Avoid onions, cabbage, fried food, rich sauces, sugary stuff, and beans.

Hope this helps.
