Always so full feeling

Hi Ladies - i'm 15wks tomorrow and everytime i eat no matter how big or small the meal is it makes me feel like i'm a stuffed pig!

I had horrible m/s for 8 wks so i'm wondering if my stomach shrank? Could it just be pregnancy bloat at this stage? Also, it seems like it takes forever for the food to digest or the feeling of being stuffed to go away. Sometimes hours!

Anyone else experiencing this? I'm so flippin uncomfortable. I'm barely showing either but my pants are wide open right now. They fit this morning pretty good now i can't have them closed when i'm sitting..
Thanks!

I have the same problem. I'm hungry, but I can't make it through a whole meal because I get so bloody full, so fast. Then it takes forever for the food bloat to disappear. Very attractive. Hah! I haven't had any m/s during this pg though.

Yes, I've had this too.  I think I remember reading that you do digest your food more slowly during pregnancy so that your body can extract the maximum amount of nutrients from the food.  Of course, with my pregnancy brain, I might have made that up!  But, I've found that trying to eat smaller, more frequent meals/snacks has helped a lot.  I can't imagine how much worse it's going to get as the pregnancy goes on!  Good luck...

I'm the same way too. I didn't know if it was because there were two of them in there pushing on my stomach or what was going on.. But it really is uncomfortable
