The bloat is out of control this time around

SonadoraSonadora member
in Pregnant after a Loss

I am sitting in my office with my pants unbuttoned and wide open because they were slicing me in half.

I didn't have bloat this bad at any point in my last pg, it looks like I put on 10 pounds in the shape of a tire around my waist.

WTF?

    I hope so too!

    I started noticing it a couple days ago, but just figured AF was on her way since I've had bloating every month since the m/c. But this is nothing like the AF bloating.

    This is exactly what happened to me.  I was way bigger way faster this time around.  I am already in maternity clothes 100% of the time, unless I'm wearing DH's sweat pants.

    If this keeps up (not to mention the fact that I had to go pee 12 times today!!) my employees are going to get mighty suspicious might fast. Even with my pants buttoned you can see the bloat.

    I cannot dig out the Bella band at not even 4 weeks...that's absurd.

    You are taking supplements, right? I noticed my bloat immediately after starting prometrium. My stomach is bigger than my coworker's and she is 20weeks. (we were the same size before pregnancy)

    It's all worth it! :) Congrats!

    Yeah, I just started the prometrium last night though!! Wowzers.

     Thanks :)

    Totally worth it all if I get a take home baby this time.

    This!

    I am in the same boat, I pulled out my bella band and have rocked it the last two days, I'm fine in the morning but by 3pm I feel like the Michelin Man and I need to unbutton my pants...

    My bloat was worst right at the beginning, then regressed before the real belly started, so perhaps you'll get a reprieve if you can keep things under wraps in the meantime.

    Mine has been awful. And a I'm not on supplements. I have some maternity pants that I might break out, but all of the shirts I bought are still way too loose, and made to make you "look" pregnant, ykwim? I need to go shopping this weekend for clothes that will HIDE the bloat for the next month. Ugh.

    Mine was really bad this time around too. I ended up getting maternity jeans around 8 weeks cause my regular jeans were just too uncomfortable. Also yoga pants became my best friends!

    This!  And then I had a reprieve right around 10wks or so.  Now at 13 1/2 things are starting to get hairy again.  I put on mat-shorts yesterday for the first time.  They're still too big but I couldn't take wearing normal shorts.
