Yes! The pregnancy bloat can get so uncomfortable!

Super normal. Your change in hormones, extra blood, and changes in your uterus can contribute to the bloat. It’ll come and go throughout your whole pregnancy, but for me the first 8-10 weeks were the worst for bloating.

I’m not an expert, but from my personal experience and from what I have read over the years (4th pregnancy, hoping 3rd baby ❤️). Bloating is one of the symptoms that can occur super early on. It is listed as one of the 4 week symptoms. But symptoms vary so much from one woman to another. With my first two pregnancies I was buying maternity underwear and maternity pants by like 7-8 weeks because I just couldn’t take the bloat anymore. You may want to check with your doctor, but I’m pretty sure it’s ok to take gas-x and that can help if it is indeed bloat. Also try to drink a lot of water (which annoyingly means a lot of peeing) - it helps with the bloat and also if you are taking prenatals the iron can cause constipation for some people and that would also contribute to the uncomfortable belly feeling… lots of water helps with that too :-)

So normal. I'm on my 7th pregnancy (hopefully 3rd baby) and the bloat was always the first clue for me.
