Thursday Question

Ok, so I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow and my question today is that I've been bloated for the past 3 weeks, but woke up this morning and I almost have a normal size belly again. The bloat has also seemed to be replaced by on and off light cramping. Has anyone else had their symptoms switch on them?

    I have, the bloating died down this week for me (week 6) I attributed it to upping my water intake but not sure if it's just something that occurs around this time! I'm enjoying the fact that my pants fit again!!

    Similar here. I'm at 6 weeks today. The previous week or so I was bloated almost all the time. Over the last few days I've noticed my abdomen is its normal size in the morning, but the bloat increases throughout the day.

    As your hormones change symptoms will change as well, as will your body's acclimation along the way. Perfectly normal!

    Thanks ladies, FTM so every little out of wack thing makes me ponder what's going on. I was getting used to the bloat and then *poof* gone this morning.

    Yes! Super normal for the bloating to decrease.  Enjoy it before you 'pop' in a few months!

    Yep totally normal. I'm thinking of wearing maternity jeans because the bloat is so bad and I can barely fit in my regular jeans.

    Normal. The digestive system is working more slowly, so as you eat, you bloat. Lovely. I had to change my pants mid-day yesterday because my waistband went from perfect fit to digging into my middle. :(

    Yep normal- my bloat comes and goes too. Was bloated at first. Yesterday and the day before I was the leanest I've looked in a long time even before pregnant (barfing maybe??). Today my jeans are feeling tight again...

    I really hope my bloating goes next week. I am 5 weeks today and I look about 5 months. I think I'd rather bloat than morning sickness though

    So I spoke way too soon, bloat has been replaced with nausea. Thought I was feeling gross because I needed to eat something, nope food made it worse. I'll take the bloat back please.

    During my last pregnancy, my horrible morning sickness disappeared one day. I was terrified, and went for a scan immediately. All was fine, the morning sickness was just giving me a break. :)

    Good luck.

    I am so glad you asked this, I was wondering about the exact same thing. 6w1d and my bloated belly dissapeared 2 days ago. I was getting a bit worried.

    I am starting to get waves of nausea though and gag sometimes when I'm brushing my teeth.... oh the joys.... ;)
