Im around 6 weeks and my lower pet feels so bloated and tight, almost looks like im already showing which i know is too early. is this the bloating everyone talks about? feels weird honestly, pls share ur experience.
I am planning my pregnancy and always wondered if early bloating feels like period bloating or is it different? It's so interesting how hormones affect the stomach so early on. Good luck to you!
Bloating is just your digestion slowing down due to pregnancy hormones. I dealt with it by doing gentle 15-minute walks after meals and drinking warm water, which my doctor had permitted. Make sure your doctor clears you for light activities first!
Abdominal bloating is a very common early pregnancy symptom caused by increased progesterone levels, which relaxes gastrointestinal muscles. While it's completely normal, if you experience severe abdominal pain or vomiting along with it, you should definitely consult your gynac.
Honestly, the bloating in my first month was so bad that I looked 5 months pregnant already! It's just progesterone slowing down your digestion system to help the baby absorb nutrients. Eating small, frequent meals really helped me.
I am trying to conceive and keep reading about early symptoms. Actually, I heard progesterone hormone slows down your digestion, which causes bloating and gas even before a missed period. Let's hope it's a good sign for you!
