I’ve been farting a lot for my entire life, but especially while sleeping. I usually sleep on my side, curled up, but sometimes on my back. I don’t have any allergies or similar things that could be causing this as far as I know.

For example, last night was like this:

  • I lay down, I fart twice
  • I adjust my position, I fart again
  • I roll on my left side, I fart
  • I get up to fix my bed, I fart
  • I lay down again, I fart

This is rather unfortunate because I like sleep with my head under the blanket.

Edit: as for my eating habits, my diet has consisted mainly of granola with 2-4 per day and miscellanous fruit and vegetables for the last 4+ years.

    Obligatory: I am not a doctor, I don’t know your life.

    Jumping off the other comment suggesting a low-fodmap diet, do you have other health problems? What sounds like an extremely unbalanced diet (possibility in combination with a round of antibiotics or an episode of food poisoning) may have resulted in a condition called SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth), specifically an overgrowth of methane-producing bacteria. I’d recommend getting tested.
