Bloating during ovulation

Ashley • Thu, Jan 29

I don't know without a doubt that I'm ovulating it's just the estimate that Glow gives me but, I've been really bloated for the past week. My app says I'm ovulating. I've never been this bloated besides the first couple days of my period (which is usually paired with bad cramps and other period stuff). I've almost never had bloating for this long.

There's no pain, just a firm belly, pants are tight around the waist, and I've been eating a bit more than normal. I've even changed my eating day to day to see if it was something I ate, plus drinking more water and tea instead of soda and nothing changed.

I'm just wondering if anyone else gets similar bloating mid-cycle around ovulation? This has never happened to me before.
