Bloating- i swear i double in size

I am 18+1 and have had bad bloating and indigestion from day 1. Sometimes in the first tri i looked about 6 months gone. Now im a bit further on and have an actual bump, is it normal to practically double in size over the course of a day? I wake up looking all small and cute and go to bed uncomfortable and enormous.

Im not eating too much, if anything the indigestion and bloating are making me only able to eat a few snack size portions a day, a bite too much and i feel like ive eaten 2 xmas dinners and can almost feel it coming back up im so full. Sometimes just a banana can have this effect.

Basically is this a normal preg thing or something else?

I bloat up during the day on most days to varying degrees. The one positive of this vold I have is that every cough and sneeze is helping get all the trapped wind out!

I think it's common as digestion slows down a lot.

I think i accidentally posted this thread twice! Good to know im not alone and its normal. Just been worrying about it as all my mummy friends are like "wow i cant believe you have indigestion already, and so bad!" which then makes me feel like there is something serious wrong!
