Noisey night time stomach

For the last few months my stomach has been very noisey after meals, and after ive had my evening meal it continues all through the night.
Keeps me awake for hours. It doesnt hurt but I can feel it gurgling if you know what I mean. At first I thought it may be trapped wind but ive tried the over the counter remedies and they dont do anything, doesnt really feel like trapped wind but thought I would try them. Have also tried the indigestion things and no luck.

It is starting to affect me. I cant stay over at friends or my boyfriends because am embarrased of my overly noisey stomach.

Any ideas?
Well you needen't be embarrassed by it. I hardly think your friends will mind. And if they do they're not good friends.

I love it when my stomach does that. It's like it's talking to me.

Play loud music as a decoy
So embarassing during my Maths exam last year, my stomach sounded like a beast, not good in a silent exam hall.
mine does it quite a lot, i think it must depend on what i've eaten/drank. with my now ex boyfriend we both just made a joke out of it, he thought it was funny. only time i really got bothered by it was one or two times when it happened when we were having sex *cringe*

It may just be your stomach acid
HAve you ever thought you might have IBS? Because among other symptons I get that too. You might have it very mildly-go to your GP and he could give you medication to help it. THe medication Im on relieves it.

I agree, it sounds like you could be suffering IBS. I have IBS and one of the things I notice when my tum is playing up is the extra gurgles it makes :redface: & Ibs is made worse with stress so try not to worry about it or it just makes things worse!
