So in the day it's not bad but when I start to lay down for bed my stomach starts gurgling and making me feel uncomfortable. Lately it's been effecting my sleep as well. Does anyone ever have this problem?

Hannah,
A few different possibilities:
1. You are more conscious of your stomach noises when you are laying down in a silent room than during the daytime while you busy in a noisy atmosphere.
2. Digestion occurs 1-6hrs post meal depending on what you ate and how you digest things so you may just be in full digestion when you go to bed.
3. What you are eating does not agree with you.
4. You have some sort of stomach issues going on (lactose intollerance, wheat allergies...) that are upsetting it...
5. Bacterial overgrowth?
And probably a whole lot of other suggestions that others here can kick in...

Are you taking any medications, supplements, etc? It would help to know what you are already doing. Sometimes, the stuff we take for one problem causes another...

Thanks for the replies yall! And im just taking librax, its what they gave me for this problem but its not really doing much. I guess ill just give my stomach time to digest the food before i go to sleep! Just wanted to make sure it wasnt anything unusual.
My intestines pick up activity sometimes depending on my position lying down! Often I have to sleep on my right side only. I think the cause of mine is adhesions which cause my intestines to get hung up, and when I move they release a little ... but I am not sure!
Yes, last night was really bad for me. Probably because I had ice cream after dinner.
I just had my takedown last month, and I have the same problem in the evening. I end up having to sleep in a semi-upright position either in my papasan chair or on the couch. I'm just praying that this is temporary. I also get the feeling that I have to empty my pouch more when I am trying to go to bed.
