Stomach making sloshing sounds like in a bath tub

I think its normal. Stomachs obviously have liquid in them, and if you drink a lot of water you are going to hear it sloshing. Perfectly normal and safe. I actually remember drinking a lot of water sometimes as a kid just to hear it.

i see you made this post 3 years ago...did you ever know why you were retaining water like that??

Yes Greg, I can relate. I will say that I have an abnormal amount of gas, and also that I am NOT constipated. I have regular bowel movements and still the sloshing continues. I spoke of this to my primary doctor and she acted as if she had never heard of it. What to do? What to do?

Hey so my belly is sloshing as well but i have kept drinking lots of water so maby its just that im just wondering if its bad or not.

Hi there, I want to say I am sorry to hear that your 9 year old daughter is going through this, I did see your post a year ago, but was not able to comment, I hope you have found a cure I would love to know, well to start with I have been suffering from this unknown condition for about 20 years now I have been to the best gastric doctors but have had no success I am dabbling in a theory that it's a small intestinal bacteria overgrowth ,SIBO, and I am treating myself with iodine after many researching on the internet, results are that I feel different but I am still waiting for the cure apparently it can take a long time. My 9 year old is also complaining of stomach pain in the morning I am hopeing that she doesn't have the same condition as I have , you can find so much information on the internet on iodine and sibo


Hope that this post was helpful, as I know the doctors are useless when it comes to understanding what you are really going through, and they love to label it as a stress issue.

I suffer from chronic breathing. I need help

thats alot of help thank you i got worried for a second

When I drink half a bottle of water or a whole bottle of water I get the stomach sloshing thing. Its happened ever since I was a toddler and I think it's normal, unless it happens everyday.

Well, this can happen if you swallow air, becaus, sound is air vibrating through the air, to get te sounds in our ears, if you dont swallow air you get the effect less.

so in your stomach, there must be some gas of kind of, and that makes the vibration go through the air

there, if that dosent work, idk

My stomach does this no matter what. Im 13 and i can go a while without earing or drinking and it still makes this sound. I can be laying in bed and all i have to do it shift my weight and it makes this sound. I inoy get stomach pains if i do it to much and i always jsut thought it was just slot of extra blood

Hi hear water in my stomache but i do not have stomache pains at all..i dont think pains is the problem

I agree with Greg. I don't drink a lot of liquid but sometimes it stores up and sounds like Sloshing. I am overweight. I have Diverticulosis as well and because of low fluid intake am constipated frequently. Also high stress levels.
I've found that liquid Magnesium Citrate up to a few ounces helps get things moving when needed. And have started taking 200mg Magnesium (chelated) twice daily. Slowly increase from 200mg if you get the runs.
It seems to Relax the stomach muscles so they can function more efficiently.
Never diagnosed with Gastroparesis but sound like I'm a candidate after reading this blog. Good luck

Has your daughter been drinking a lot of fluids over the course of time when this was happening?? Because if she has i think that might be the problem. Im no expert but this is just the indigestion of fluids. They are harder to tackle with the excretory system so it may take a while for those fluids to properly leave the body. That may be the cause of the sloshing. If not then u need to see a doctor right away. I hope this well help.

What did they say about you? I have the same issues

try getting oil on her stomach and rub it
