I'm 32wks and feel really bloated in my limbs, it feels like it happened within a month.no gestational diabetes I just bloat very easily even before pregnacy. Does it go away after baby? It's getting harder to bend my fingers, elbows and knees with all this extra weight. ive become very self conscious lately about it.

    My sister had this and it went away after she delivered but remember every woman and pregnancy are different. Also, have you brought this up to your doctor? Or has he/she noticed? They'll probably have the best answer for you. Good luck :)

    Yeah I bloat if I eat saltyfood or drink which isn't much. But when it happens I'm a blimp but can't take water pills to ease it.

    I would just try to stay away from the salt intake as much as possible if that's what's causing it and drink as much water as possible. :)

    I'm 32 weeks today, as well. And I've had some major bloating issues off and on. Fortunately, I don't have any health issues. And my hands, feet, legs, etc., are not really swelled up at all. I guess it's just the foods I eat. But I've so had the cold, AND flu, back to back. Which has also bloated me up due to throwing up, and sinuses draining back. @-) I've tried EVERYTHING to help with my bloating. And the things I found that has helped, is Tums and Water. Walking around for a few minutes, has helped me, as well.
