Bloating after BFP

I am so freakin bloated its out of control. I am 4 weeks just now and I look 12 weeks.  I have not gained any weight so I know its all bloat.  How to I get rid of it?  Its cute to have a bump at all but  not at this stage.  Between my boobs and belly I dont know what to do.  This better mean that this is my sticky bean!

 Anyone have any tips to reduce it.  I have been drinking lots of water but it hasnt worked and I have been going the bathroom a lot so thats not it. Maybe I should go back to the gatorade?? 

(A bold move but I am being optimistic and adding a ticker....yeeeee)

Re: Bloating after BFP

  • It's different for everyone. I was terribly bloated from 4-6weeks and I couldn't button my jeans during the 6th week. Then just one day during my 6th week, I felt like a balloon just pricked with a pin.  My bloat and all symptoms just disappeared. This freaked me out but my nurse said symptoms change for a while. So there's probably nothing you can do. It may or may not go away soon.  So far I've come to learn that it's possible to think too much of symptoms and we worry when they are there and worry when they are gone. It's hard but would be nice to just ignore them especially if they are mild symptoms.

  • Hmmm, in my last three BFP's, one of my surest signs was tons of bloating (the other was feeling really tired).  Sounds like your bold move was a good one!  When is your beta?
