Why Does Gas and Bloating Occur When Pregnant? http://www.babymed.com/complications/gas-and-bloating-pregnancy Gas and bloating occurs for everyone on earth. The normal human actually passes gas up to 14 times every day even if they do not know they have gas. When a woman is pregnant, the increased levels of progesterone cause the muscles of the body to relax. This means all muscles relax including those that help the digestive tract move food out of the body. The decrease in digestion times makes for increased gas and increased feelings of bloat.
