Bloating...
So I got my BFP on Monday (I am only 4 weeks today - AF would have been due today)..and I have been having bad gas since Monday (like gas pains in my stomach).
Is this common this early on? When does it go away?

Re: Bloating...
Congrats to you!!! Unfortunately, it doesn't go away. It is due to the rising progesterone in your body, which slows everything down. Happy and healthy 9 months to you!!
ETA: my situation may be a little different. I'm on 400 mg of Prometrium (progesterone) per day so mine hasn't left yet.

Re: Bloating...
Totally normal! One of the first symptoms many ladies complain about is the bloat!

Re: Bloating...
absolutly normal...mine finally susided towards the end of the first tri...however, it does still happen from time to time..
ETA: Try eating smaller meals, and dont eat too fast, that usually keeps bloat and gas down.

Well at least I am not alone at least! I guess I will just continue taking my tums every now and then! I heard those were safe to use and they do help some!
Oh the joys of pregnancy but I am sure all worth it :)

Re: Bloating...
Yup. 4w3d here, and still bloated! I've noticed it's a bit better if I watch my sodium and drink enough water....but it's still there.
