Pregnancy & Stomach Growling: Causes, Relief & When to See a Doctor

Growling stomach noises during pregnancy are common and usually harmless. Your stomach makes these noises because of increased activity in the digestive system due to pregnancy hormones. Here are some tips that may help:

- Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day.

- Avoid foods that trigger gas and bloating, such as beans, cabbage, and broccoli.

- Drink plenty of water.

- Get regular exercise.

- Avoid stress and anxiety.

If you are concerned about the growling noises, talk to your doctor.
