What does this mean???
It's not painful, not trapped gas or anything, diet is the same pretty much, not usually someone who passes gas very much but since yesterday I have been farting SO much, like big, loud earth shaking 🤣🤣 please help! Is it baby? Is it labour?? I have a sweep tomorrow and I'm terrified in case I let a big one rip right in the midwifes face 😭😭

Are you pooping okay? Sometimes it's that you haven't emptied completely, and with the hormones and the baby pressing down, it just sometimes happens.
I remember my husband helping me put on a pregnancy belt (starting at like early 2nd trimester) and just letting loose (no smell, just loud!) because the pressure was removed and then having to rush to use the potty. I was also put on colace shortly after to help with the constipation.
Luckily my husband was very understanding! 😆
Tell the midwife your concerns before your sweep, so that if it happens, at least she was forewarned. Anyway, they're medical professionals, it shouldn't faze them!
