Bloating

I'm 6 weeks 1 day.
Is there anything I can do to curb just feeling really bloated. I already drink 10 to 12 glasses of water daily. I did this before prego, and know I need to keep it up. I just don't remember feeling so bloated with my first two pregnancies, but it's been 12 years since my last pregnancy.

    Everyone is different but for me I am bloated, swollen and itchy from pretty much conception to delivery.

    Each pregnancy is different. My last one I blew up at 4 1/2 weeks. Not much to do expect keep up the water.

    Bloat is serious here too. Yoga pants and H's t-shirts have already become a permanent staple in my wardrobe. So fun.

    @Taymiller me too! This is my fourth pregnancy in the year and I've had four exploratory laparotomies so my stomach muscles are extremely weak. But still, it's just bloat! lolol

    So much bloating OMG. I feel like a ball of gas. Sometimes when I bend down and my bloated gut gets squished I can't help but fart lol. It's embarrassing even when in home alone lol

    This is kiddo #4. My stomach muscles are pretty much nonexistent at this point. I legit look like I have a bump buuuttttt.... definitely just ridiculous bloat.

    You're in good company! I work out an hour daily, drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, usually more, and haven't eaten more than 1000 calories a day in over 2 weeks now (MS). I lost a pound and a half in the last 2 weeks (not on purpose obviously) but my bras are still too tight and my belly looks very pregnant! I consider myself to have strong ab muscles, but I think there's nothing to be done. Bloat and water retention are random and don't have much to do with lifestyle as far as I can tell...

    It's a serious situation here too. I do not remember being this bloated and this gassy so early with the last 2...I'm only 3w6d and been feeling it for over a week!

    I'm seriously struggling with the bloating! It's waking me up in the middle of the night because it's so painful and I can't go back to sleep until I've burped or farted (pretty gross) but it's never that easy! Is there any way to deal with it?
