Wind problems

I am 9 weeks and have really embarrassing wind, I am too embarrassed to mention it to my midwife when she comes in 3 days. It is really getting me down. How long can i expect this to last - is there anything i can do to control it!

this is pretty normal in pregnancy i was told that it is due to the pregnancy hormones slowly down your bowels. I think diet has alot to do with it try and get a really balanced diet and drink plenty of water, other than that the midwife will have heard it all before so dont worry about mentioning it to her!
