Yes, it's another pleasure of pregnancy like piles and heartburn. Your baby is pretty big now and it's getting a bit of a tight squeeze, everything's getting squashed, that can't help. Try and cut down on foods that give you wind, the usual you know, spicy stuff, beans, peas,onions the dreaded brussells.Trouble is when you're pregnant you have to eat your windy greens for the baby! Fizzy drinks always made it worse, still do in fact. There's no way of stopping it if it's ready for the off, but pulling up the muscles of your pelvic floor can give you a bit more time to make a quick exit, (Can't believe I'm even talking about this) Just think it'll be better when you've had the baby, but you have to deliver it first and that can be one pretty windy event too, but you won't give a damn then .Just remember better out than in, even the Queen has to do it!!

It happens to us all! Oops! Excuse you :op
This is because the doses of progesterone that your body produces early in pregnancy, relax the smooth muscle tissue throughout your body, including your gastrointestinal tract. This relaxation slows your digestive processes, which can cause more wind, bloating, burping, flatulence, and uncomfortable sensations in your stomach, especially after a big meal.
In later pregnancy, your growing uterus crowds your abdominal cavity, which can further slow digestion, and pushes on your stomach, making you feel even more bloated after eating.

*LOL* I used to get trapped wind...very painful. At least you can let rip.
Hope you are getting your own back on Hubby with all that excess wind!!!!!
The secret is to do what i do....drop one then either walk off or sniff a few times and glare at the person next to you...

LOL, you can't really stop it so I'd stick with your plan by doing one then legging it.
