My stomach feels so full and gassy all the time, kabhi kabhi I cant even sit comfortably. Im in second trimester now. What do u all do to get some relief?
Bloating happens because progesterone slows down your digestion, which is completely normal. Try increasing your water intake, eating fiber-rich food, and doing mild walking. Avoid self-medicating with gas pills, and check with your gynac if you have severe abdominal pain.
Drinking warm water throughout the day can really help soothe your stomach. Eating small meals rather than large ones will also reduce the bloating. Hope you feel better soon.
When I had gestational diabetes, I had to eat high-fiber meals which sometimes caused heavy bloating. I found that eating slowly, chewing properly, and avoiding starchy foods helped. Speak with your doctor about a safe diet plan if it doesn't get better.
I had a lot of bloating too, but a short 15-minute walk after every meal worked like magic for my digestion. Staying active really helped keep things moving, and it made my body feel so much better. Give it a try!
Please be very gentle with your body right now. Bloating is very normal due to progesterone hormones, but avoid any strong home remedies or over-the-counter gas tablets without asking your doctor first. Just take light walks and rest well to stay safe.
Actually, bloating is the worst part of pregnancy, yaar! I stopped having heavy carbonated drinks and started drinking warm fennel (saunf) water instead. It really helps release the gas and feels so light on the stomach.
To reduce bloating, try to eat smaller portions every 2-3 hours instead of three big meals. Avoid gas-producing foods like cabbage, beans, and heavy fried stuff. Drinking tender coconut water in the morning also works wonders for digestion.
