What can cause gas belly aches during pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Progesterone: The Progesterone level is markedly elevated during pregnancy. The Progesterone causes smooth muscle to relax. This allows the uterus to expand, but also causes the intestines to slow down which can result in consitpation, bloating, and colicky pain.
