Is it common to pass gas in the early stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

After pregnancy, the enlargement of the uterus and changes in endocrine function can make it easy for pregnant women to experience indigestion, and frequent passing of gas is often the reason. Since rice tends to produce acid, it is not good for digestion in pregnant women, so it is not recommended to eat too much. Of course, if your digestion is normal and you enjoy eating more rice, you can do so.
