Bloating
I am barely pg (only 5 weeks) & yet I am soooo bloated that my tops & pants are tight! Is this normal? Is it a 2nd pg thing maybe? It's really a bit ridiculous, but I'm so uncomfortable!

Re: Bloating
I'm going through the same thing. I find that eating smaller meals helps

Re: Bloating
That happened to me in the beginning too. I just started dinking more water. Eventually it went away. I am 18 weeks and I feel like there were times in the very beginning that I looked bigger than I do now.

Re: Bloating
Totally happening to me too - only 4 weeks and 2nd pregnancy. I feel like i have a belly already and feel like family/friends are staring at me which is prob just in my head. We are waiting til further along to tell people so I just hate this stage when you're trying to keep it a secret but you feel gross and fat and feel like none of your clothes fit. Glad I am not alone in this though.

OMG you are so not alone. I feel like people are looking too, but then again they probably are - I've been hearing "When are you going to have another one?!?" a lot at work lately I think everyone has been watching my belly for weeks now
Thanks so much ladies - I feel bad that you all feel or felt like I do, but it's nice to know you're not alone!

Re: Bloating
ahh i'm so glad to read that other ladies are going through the same thing. I felt incredibly bloated almost immediately. I am only around 7 weeks now but it's been going on for weeks and I can't wear some clothes already without major muffin top!
Before this week I was loading up on major carbs tho so I attribute a lot of bloating on that. I'm hoping it settles down a bit now that I'm getting more nausea and not gorging anymore.
I feel the same way about people looking at my belly and wondering!!!

yes I guess it could have something to do with the fact that I am eating like a PIG! I am so starving all the time - only 4 weeks though - literally just got my BFP.
