General Surgeon,  's  Response
HI. First of all remember this is not a symptom of pregnancy.
This can occur in intestinal infection and also seen in patients with anxiety... Get once checked by a Gastro Doctor and get a few investigations like ultrasonography, X-ray of abdomen and blood , urine and stool tests.
Occasionally many major diseases can show minor symptoms , so it is better to get a clear picture and rule out so that the future is trouble-free.

Allergist and Immunologist,  Dr. Suman Kumar's  Response
you need to rule out any local organ problems of abdominal organs through endoscopy or ultrasound
if there is no result you can get blood serum tests for specific antibodies for food proteins as food proteins start reacting with body proteins suddenly to get these symptoms
get for milk wheat potato and rice or other food proteins you take
eliminating them will help you
