About thirty minutes after I ate yesterday, I laid down on my back. I started to feel like something was pushing up in between my ribs. It almost feels like my intestines pushing my food through along with gas. Is this normal to feel this? I am small, so I don't have a lot of fat in that area so is this what I am feeling?

Welcome Tara!


I also have a slight build and yes, what you described does sound like digestion. We are usually busy and distracted, so it is unusual to actually feel and see what our bodies are doing. Pretty cool, huh?

After drinking a lot of water, try 'swishing' your stomach back and forth...it is amazing what our bodies do! LOL
