• Eat Broccoli- its the storehouse of lots of vitamins and minerals

Hi,

Yes, the pain could be due to gas. To relieve you of gas problems, you can try these:

In the morning, take warm water with a spoon of honey on empty stomach. After some 15 minutes, take your milk.
Having some roasted ajwain (Omam ) after meals helps.
If you get hungry in the nights, take cold milk with honey.
Cook vegetable with ginger to aid digestion.

Take care.

Regarding bras, I used to be comfortable in sports bras as they dont put pressure on the abdomen. You can try them.

Cheers,

Sumathy
