Pretty much all day esp at night I am SO bloated.  Why is this????  Is anyone else having this issue?  I know it is normal but why does it happen??

    My BFF said it was due to increased progesterone!

    I totally feel that was too. I am taking PIO shots so that doesn't seem to help either.

    hormones hormones and more hormones. our bodies are reataining water so watch your salt intake and make sure you're drinking plenty to keep things moving.?

    we're also upping our blood volume so we're litterally swelling up all over

    and finally there's the fun dietary sloooooow down. happen to notice that you can eat a meal and feel like you're sitll full two hours later? the digestive system of pregnant women slows down which leaves us feeling full because we are, we also get alot more gas from this so we feel even MORE bloated and our intestines are kinda like a congested highway right now so pants feel super tight and oncomfortable.

    then there's the wonderful shifting. the further along we are while we may not have a baby bump, it's because the uterus is just pushing everything else in there out of the way! the bladder the intestines, they all just get shoved as fasr as the abdominal space will allow, then that bump finally starts pushing out when it cant push up anymore.. I wish i could tell people we're pregnant that way I could feel pregnant not just tryingto hide feeling so fat LOL
