Bloat relief

mthuro

Okay ladies, I know this is a little TMI, but I'm incredibly bloated and am already constipated.  I'm only 6 and a half weeks along. This is my first pregnancy. Do any of you have any tips and tricks to dealing with these symptoms? I feel huge right now. Help?!

I am finally starting to feel better, the only thing I have been doing differently is drinking a lot of water with lemon slices in it.  The lemon has definitely helped me drink more water and it seems to be helping with digestion too. 

I hope you get some relief soon, the bloating is the worst!

I drink a ton of water already but haven't tried a lemon. I've read that citrus fruits can help. I will have to try it. Thanks for the tip!

I second this. I think letting out a huge fart will help.

Been there, done that. Hasn't really helped.

Definitely drink as much water as possible. Even if you think you're already drinking a lot, drink more. If you're planning on breastfeeding, it'll prepare you because you have to drink like a million gallons a day.

I've been having the same issues. A friend told me her doctor had her eat lots of prunes. Although I don't love them I am willing to try anything at this point. Started eating them last night. I'm so hoping it works!
