My stomach feels full even after eating little, and by evening it becomes tight like I ate too much. I am in first trimester and this gas feeling is making me so uncomfortable yaar. Is it common or should I ask my doc?
My gynac explained that the hormone progesterone slows down digestion so food sits longer and you feel bloated and gassy. Plus later the growing uterus presses on the stomach. She said its super common and not to worry unless theres bad pain.
Beta this is very normal in pregnancy. Eat slowly, chew properly, and dont gulp food in hurry. Thoda ajwain water or saunf after meals helped me, but if pain is severe then do tell your doctor.
Pregnancy basically turns your tummy into a balloon factory haha. Its the hormones slowing digestion. Totally normal, just embarrassing in public sometimes. You are not alone in this.
Hormones mainly, they slow your gut down. What worked for me was small meals instead of 3 big ones, and cutting too much fried and spicy stuff. Walk a bit after eating, really helps move the gas out.
Very common ma. My amma told me to avoid heavy gas making foods like rajma and too much cabbage in evening. Warm water through the day helped me. But if its constant pain better mention to your gynac.
