Period due in a few days and my stomach is so full of gas, bohot bloated feeling whole day. Never had this much before periods. Could it be an early sign ya am I just reading too much into it? Anyone noticed gas before getting their BFP?
Since I had PCOS, my hormones were already messy and early pregnancy gas made me super anxious. It can be a symptom, but it's always safer to track your dates and do a proper test to be sure. Take care!
Oh my god, I felt like a literal balloon in my first few weeks! I was so confused and emotional thinking why is my tummy bloated so early. It definitely is a symptom, so please dont feel weird about it.
Yes, absolutely, bloating and gas start almost immediately because of progesterone. Just cut down on heavy chana or tur dal for a while and walk a bit after dinner. It is totally normal, nothing to panic about.
In our family, elders always say that digestion slows down to support the baby, so gas is very common. But honestly, I always double-checked with my gynac whenever I had doubts. Best to drink warm water and eat light, traditional home-cooked meals.
I've seen so many moms post about this here, and yes, it is very common in early weeks. Try having small meals throughout the day instead of big ones. If it gets too uncomfortable, just ask your doctor for a safe antacid.
