I cant believe how much trapped wind hurts and its my 6th baby and i have only ever had it with my 1st once and i rememeber crying crawling round the room phoned my dad and he said have pop and jump up and down and t worked big burp and felt great but today was so diffrent same pains just lasted all day. I hope to never get that again. I really feel for you girls tha get it all the time.

I suffered from this in the first trimester. Try to eat little and often. I found a cup of peppermint tea is very good for trapped wind, fizzy drinks only exacerbate the symptoms. A warm bath helps, as does lying on all fours and putting your backside in the air, whilst rubbing your tummy, not a very attractive look lol but effective. Failing that, Rennie Deflatine is good and is safe to use in pregnancy but always check with your midwife etc. Hope you get some relief soon!
