My 9 year old daughter has a belly ache from gas and would like to know what her farts are likely going to smell like ? answer fast preferably a girl

Hard to say: The odor of bowel gas depends on the persons diet and the population of their gut germs. The various gut germs feed off undigested food & generate what will be a blend of differing odors. Sometimes probiotics can alter the odor to a less offensive one by altering the balance of germs in the gut.
