Hi Anon,

How are you feeling today? The gassy feeling you are experiencing is not a symptom of pregnancy. However, if you have had unprotected sex over two weeks ago, please feel free to take a pregnancy test.

Have you ever suffered from constipation? When you are constipated you may feel the need to go to the bathroom as well as a strong stomach pain. I am hesitant to advise any over the counter product as I am not a doctor and cannot determine that this is truly caused by constipation. So, your best bet, if this pain is still occurring, is to call your doctor and speak to the nurse so that they can tell you how to ease the discomfort.

Best Wishes,

Rosa

Hi anon,
I hope you feel better. In such cases, first thing I would do would be to take a home pregnancy test to ease your mind. If the pains continue, then consult your doctor to figure out where the problem really is. Best of luck
