6 weeks pregnant and my stomach feels so full and bloated all the time, pet just feels tight. Its uncomfortable na and im wondering how many weeks this continues. does it go away on its own?
It usually lasts through the first trimester as your body adjusts to the new life inside. Keep your mind peaceful and drink plenty of water. This phase too shall pass, just stay positive and take care.
Honestly, expect it to stick around till week 12 or 13. Your hormones are going crazy right now, so it is totally normal. Just avoid carbonated drinks and walk a bit after meals.
I recently went through this and my bloating peaked around week 9, then slowly got better. Warm water and avoiding heavy, oily foods helped me a lot. Hang in there, it definitely gets better in the second trimester!
Haan na, early pregnancy me stomach humesha bhara-bhara lagta hai. It usually goes away after the third month, don't worry. Tab tak walk simple rakho aur heavy food avoid karo, ho na?
Oh, that heavy, bloated feeling is so uncomfortable, I remember feeling so frustrated with it. It typically starts settling down around week 12 or 14. Be gentle with yourself, your body is doing some amazing work right now.
Bloating is quite common due to progesterone slowing down digestion, and it usually gets better by the second trimester. However, if it's accompanied by severe pain or vomiting, it is best to consult your doctor. Keep yourself hydrated and eat small meals.
My doctor at the hospital explained that progesterone makes digestion sluggish, which causes this bloating. They recommended eating small, frequent meals rather than large ones. Definitely mention it at your next check-up if it is bothering you a lot.
It usually stays for the first few months. My mother used to give me warm water to sip throughout the day, which helped a lot. Just rest as much as you can and eat light home-cooked meals.
For me, it lasted till about the fourth month. My mother-in-law suggested drinking warm cumin (jeera) water, but I also double-checked with my doctor first. It really helped ease the gas naturally.
