Abstract
We present a patient that developed severe belching during pregnancy. Esophageal pH-impedance monitoring revealed frequent supragastric belching, but not gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Thus, severe belching during pregnancy can be due to a behavioral disorder in the absence of GERD. Belching complaints during pregnancy should therefore not always be treated as GERD
