Constipation is the lack of having a bowel movement from three days to one week. In worst-case scenarios, some individuals do not experience a bowel movement for many weeks or up to a month. As waste is separated from material that can be used as fuel for the body, it is moved through the large intestine. Within the large intestine, the waste absorbs available water to make a bulkier stool. When waste is not moving properly through the bowels, it can accumulate and become impacted in the colon, creating discomfort. One of the more common symptoms is bloating.
Bloating is the swelling of the abdominal region which may be uncomfortable or painful. It may last for only a few days for some, or for long periods of time for others. Occasional bloating associated with constipation is frequently brought on by life circumstances such as travel, a change in diet, or pregnancy. Chronic bloating with constipation is not a disease, but a symptom of an underlying problem. This constipation related bloating can develop for a number of reasons and can be a source of discomfort and self-consciousness.

certain foods/drinks can trigger bloating- does he burp/fart still alot? I have a condition that my esophogas opening into my stomach has been damaged and is very small (i don't even get heartburn) and because of that I cannot burp and so if i eat/drink anything that might cause bloating (like soda especially) i just have to wait it out or take an anti-gas medicine. it can be fixed by going to the doctor and they stick some kind of balloon down your throat, inflate it and bring it back up (ouch-im too afraid to do it so far). you can check that out, or you can try and watch what he is eating regularly for these last few months. also, not enough fiber can cause constipation which can also lead to bloating. Good luck and i hope you find a solution!

Sorry but I don't know what this has to do with pregnancy, he can't be surely... unless it's a freak of nature.
Okay I'll answer properly, he might have got an ulcer, tell him to visit the GP, only he/she can diagnose.

Time for a check-up at the doctor. Could be anything, including sluggish thyroid.
