Periods are few days late and suddenly im super gassy, never had this much before. Now my mind is going everywhere. Could this be an early sign or am i reading too much into it?
I completely understand how uncomfortable and awkward this makes you feel, but please don't worry. Your body is going through massive changes right now. Just drink warm water and eat small meals, it really helps calm the tummy.
Yes, digestion gets very slow due to hormonal changes. Along with this, make sure to get your routine blood tests and thyroid levels checked early on, as thyroid can also affect digestion. Keep your doctor updated.
Oh, I remember those days so clearly! I felt like a balloon in my first trimester. Don't worry, it's just your hormones doing their job. It gets better, hang in there!
I felt so embarrassed during my first few weeks because of this constant gas. But once I realized it was just my body making room and adjusting for the baby, I felt much better. It is definitely a very real early sign!
I had so much gas in the beginning, I was literally convinced something was wrong with my stomach! It turns out progesterone hormone relaxes your muscles, causing this. It's totally normal but so frustrating.
