Bloated feeling

Hi, this is my first post!

I found out last week I was pregnant with my first baby - I'm about 5 weeks I think, I just wanted to ask if this was normal!

I've been feeling very bloated every time I eat anything, is this a normal feeling? It feels like when you eat too much, so it's not painful or anything just uncomfortable.

I think im going to be asking lots of questions lol

I am 8 weeks and have the same. In the morning my belly looks like my own but by lunchtime it looks bloated and like I actually have a baby belly, when I don't yet!

Same here too!! Gets worse throughout the day and just after eating. Try and avoid gassy foods like fizzy drinks etc and it may help with the discomfort :)

I find eating little and often can help too :)

I find the days when I'm at work and sat at my desk a lot are the worst. I can help minimise the uncomfortable feeling by being more active.
