    Yes its normal. Gas and air are the #1 causes. Mine makes noises all the time and I'm almost ten weeks.

    Mine especially growls at night when I wake up to go to the bathroom. It even feels a bit like hunger at times.

    Get used to the symphony!!! If you think it growls now, wait till you start on dense protein:) It is just your sleeve doing its work...normal.

    Mine made lots of noise for the first week or so. It went away gradually.

    Good luck!!
