Soooo much bloat!

I never had the dreaded bloat last time, this is pure insanity. I could tell a stranger on the street it was a baby bump and they'd probably believe me, yikes.

Re: Soooo much bloat!

  • Right there with you! I have a bella band but just can't justify wearing it at only 5 weeks, even though it would feel a million times better just seems too early :(

  • I am fine until nightime. Then pants that I have been wearing all day just don't cut it. I have been busting out the belly band-evenings only. If second + pregnancies show earlier, I'm gonna be in maternity by September, no doubtTongue Tied

  • So happy I'm not the only one! I seriously look a few months pregnant with the bloat. I have been upping water in hopes of it going down even a little. We have no desire to tell anyone right now, but people will be guessing if it doesn't go away!

  • I'm right there with you! I am ok in the morning but then after meals I just BLOW up! I have been trying to wear flowy shirts mostly and it is so hot here right now that I think I am hiding myself pretty well!

  • Yes, I am right there with you too.  Around 3:00 in the afternoon I am in pj's because they are the only pants that I can wear comfortably.  All of my shorts are so tight around the waist already! My DH is being a jerk and he is like, "it's not possible to be showing this early, you need to go to the gym."  Can you believe it! Grrrr He doesn't believe in bloat... I bought him a few books to read ;)

    WEAR that bella band!!! OMG.. I bought that thing and it is amazing for the bloat... I was telling DH about it.. he thought I was crazy but the bloating hurts too much.. its not that my pants dont fit.. its just the pressure of the waistband when Im sitting... :( Especially in the afternoon!

  • I feel your pain.  I've been living in the yoga pants I bought to wear after DS was born.

    I was revisiting my belly pics from last time.  Right now, I look like I did when I was 18w before! 

    This really is insanity!

    OMG, thank you. I was looking at my 17 week pic, I think, and was like crap, that's how I look right now lol. Somehow my pants still fit fine, I'm just bloating over them big time. I thought maybe a run would help sweat it out, but apparently it doesn't work like normal bloat :P

    I was hoping to pee it out!  That isn't working either, dang-it! 

    Work is seriously going to find out before I tell them at this rate!

    If my husband told me I needed to get to the gym for any reason ever he would regret it. A lot lol.
