And congrats on the job! I'd been wondering about the outcome these last few days &amp; hoping you'd got the job : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-656478 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 23:32:18 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 656478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I didn't! I don't know if it's Ok or not..so don't take my word for anything. I just didn't because I was paranoid. I took them while BFing though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-656383 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 22:13:21 +0000 holdonforonemoreday 656383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats on the job!!! </p> <p>My problem was burping. It was awful. My DH would just shake his head. I also had stinky gas after my DD. I think it's finally settled down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-656365 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 21:57:20 +0000 delight 656365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats on the job!</p> <p>Oh man my DH and I were just laughing (maybe he wasn't laughing) about how stinky I am now that I am pregnant. It's non stop gas. Do you mean to tell me this doesn't magically disappear the day I give birth? This may be an only child if if doesn't let up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-656361 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 21:55:48 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 656361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: did you use the probiotics during pregnancy? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-656355 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 21:54:15 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 656355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: yay!

I don't have any pearls of wisdom but figured misery loves company...since doing ivf this past month my stomach has been insanely bloated. Now, all that bloat is screaming to get out &amp; I've been a friggin fart factory. Good times. Especially since sometimes they smell like rotten eggs. Tasty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652557 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 16:07:24 +0000 shopaholic 652557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL! OMG, glad this is a normal side-effect PP! I don't have BO or smelly gas problems, but they do just seem to come out any given time! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652547 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 16:04:02 +0000 Meridian 652547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ohhh... the things no in real life tells you about having a baby, glad to know this in advance! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652532 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 15:57:09 +0000 hellobeeboston 652532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had this problem too!! It is finally gone at 4.5 months pp - I think it actually ended around 3.5/4 months.</p> <p>Wish I knew a magic cure! </p> <p>Good luck in your interview!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652523 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 15:52:53 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 652523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm having this same problem - glad to know it's a pp issue bc i couldn't figure out what i was eating that was causing it! hopefully you can hold it in long enough to get thru your interview tmrw! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652359 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 14:48:29 +0000 lolabee 652359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow!! I thought this was just me!! I'm really sorry to hear you're experiencing it but glad to know that it's a post partum issue. I can't believe what having a baby does to your body.</p> <p>I hope it clears up quickly for you, good luck on your interview and let us know how it goes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652303 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 14:23:04 +0000 swurlygurl 652303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting... I'm 9 weeks pp, and have this same problem. I had no idea it was a 'thing' - I thought I was just weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-652295 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 14:18:48 +0000 tororojo 652295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally have this farting problem! I'm 2 weeks pp and am assuming my digestive system is just wacked out from delivery. But I look forward to not stinking DH out of the room...I just can't help it! Good luck, I hope you can hold it in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651931 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:15:34 +0000 Foodnerd81 651931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In addition to the run tonight to get things going, I recommend doing some crunches (if that's possible this soon pp?) and some yoga positions that help with... wind. I've been having this problem in pregnancy, but I usually can get a lot of it out before I get up in the morning-- lay on my back and pull my knees all the way up to my chest and relax-- seems to help a lot (and yeah, I wait until DH is in the shower for this move!). Or get on your hands and knees, then go down to your elbows, so your butt is up in the air at a sharp angle-- that usually helps. If you can get a lot out before you leave, that might help. </p> <p>And I think Beano will only help if it is food causing it? I've tried Gas-X, but had limited success. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651917 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:07:22 +0000 bunnylove08 651917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to suggest some beano. I did not have gas but terrible BO so i feel your pain </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651911 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:04:02 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 651911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the SAME problem. Except, I had B.O too. It was terrible.<br /> I think mine ended at like 6 weeks post-partum but everyone's different.<br /> I immediately got a stronger probiotic! And things seems to clear up just about immediately. Try probiotics girl, they clean out the digestive tract and keep colon clear.<br /> I also had this problem for the first 8 weeks of pregnancy. It was terrible. No one caught on but me though thank heavens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651907 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:00:27 +0000 mrsmenow 651907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tequiero21: I wish it were that simple, lol</p> <p>I feel so silly being so embarrassed by this, but I typical won't even pass gas in front of DH, I could have died last night it was so bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651895 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 11:56:31 +0000 tequiero21 651895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can u let it all out in the bathroom before u go in? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651893 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 11:56:24 +0000 mrsmenow 651893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was thinking of trying some beano or something similar. And maybe going for a run maybe tonight and see if that can get everything moving.</p> <p>I eat dairy free so I do most of my cooking at home and just can't figure out what I am eating that is making it so bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651873 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 11:49:55 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 651873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh yes, unfortunately, that's one really bad side effect of having a baby. Can you take some Tums or Immodium prior to the interview to see if it might help to calm things down for the hour that you'll be there? </p> <p>Also, be mindful of what you're eating, so that you don't eat anything that might make it worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-seriously-embarrassing-problem#post-651868 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 11:47:25 +0000 mrsmenow 651868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ever since I had LO (12 weeks ago) I have been really gassy. The past couple of days it has been out of control. I am almost constantly farting and it smells like I ate a skunk and am farting out its stink. I have a really big interview tomorrow and I am terrified that I will be gassy. Help! </p>
