I've had a lot of problems with air in my stomach in the morning as well. I was told it was from mouth breathing a bit in the night.

I use a chin strap, but if my nose gets congested, I sometimes will open my mouth despite it. Tightening the strap usually resolves this though.

If you don't have a chin strap, you may consider getting one or see if you can try one from your supplier first.
Hope this helps. It can be awful uncomfortable at times.
Louise
