6 weeks or 26 weeks!! BLOAT!!

[MummyZoe86]

Evening all :)

6.5w along and feeling like 26w.
My stomach is so bloated. Don't know how much longer I can hide this bump/bloat.

One pic from 7 weeks ago and one from today!

Obviously I wasn't a skinny supermodel before hand but this is pretty ridiculous!

Anyone else had this this early on?

The bloating is totally normal I'm afraid- the progesterone slows your digestive system down.

It gets better (briefly) about 12 weeks- I got back into my normal jeans for a couple of weeks at that point

The wee wasn't dry on my pregnancy test before I bloated up like a bloody puffer fish! It happened in both pregnancies, and the sonographer couldn't even check my ovaries at my 12 week scan because of my "overlying bowel gas"
I'm 16 weeks now and it's only just going down (sorry OP)
