Question

Lactose Intolerance

Asked for Female, 34 Years

I increased my milk products intake during pregnancy (third trimester) and i have lot of gas and bloating. I dont have diarrhoea or stomach pain but have 3 times a day bowel movement. How do i know if gas and bloating is from milk products or general pregnancy related? If i dont have diarrhoea does it means it is not lactose intolerance?
