TMI! PP and bad gas?

This is so embarrassing...I am 8 wks PP and can't control the gas...it's so awful that I don't know how I will be when I go back to work. DH thinks I can control it and am just joking around with him, but I really can't hold them in and they're terrible.
Did anyone have this happen? I had a vaginal, natural birth and had some bad tearing but my midwife said it's all completely healed by now. I'm doing my Kegels to try to strengthen everything gradually, but I didn't think it would be this bad.
I'm eating the correct amount of fiber (or so I think) so that I won't get constipated because I think constipation might be worse, but I'm beginning to reconsider. How can I go out in public like this?

Oh have I been there Chat Icon . I started doing me kegals more (more who am I kidding, ok I started doing them) and I started eating Activia everyday. I don't know if it was one or the other or a combination but after about a week I was much better. Good luck Chat Icon Chat Icon

Okay, so I never had gas before I had my C-section! OMG! I delivered on 9/27 and it finally got better a few weeks ago!
