2nd Trimester

22 weeks - FULL feeling in belly

I'm 22 weeks with my 3rd baby & I constantly feel like I have eaten 4 plates at a buffet. My belly is tight and just uncomfortable! Anyone else with me? Right now, I have no clue as to how I am going to grow for another 3-and-a-half months (my babies come at 36 weeks). Ok, whine over! :)

  • I get this too. Its horrid uncomfortable. Sometimes when my tummy feels like this my skin will itch. I think its just growing and stretching. Every time my tummy starts to itch I run for the lotion. I don't think its preventing the stretch marks though.  =(

  • oh sweetie, i sympathize with you. i am 15 wks with #3 and i already feel like i am full all the time. while i am still getting sick, and even when i have thrown up all there is left to dispose of, i still have that feeling : /
  • Raises hand!  It always feels like it's pushed out to max capacity, and quite full.  Oh well.  I remember feeling this way later on in the pg last time also, just don't remember how far.  I'm quite scared to see how big I get this time :( 

    Only benefit, I don't eat all that much these days.  I'm more of a snacker, but at meal time, I just don't have much room.  That happened last time also- which is the only reason I only gained 36 lbs after my significant weight gain in the beginning.  I pray the same happens again :)

  • Ditto. I especially dislike the stretching skin feeling. Asked my doc about it this week, and she said it's just part of the territory. They make pregnancy belts that will hold your belly if you ever want, but that's about all you can do.

  • I feel that way from after lunch until I go to bed at night; luckily it usu feels better in the morning.  I wonder what it will feel like in a few weeks too!
