I'm 11 weeks today and by mid afternoon I get terrible bloating which is quite uncomfortable it makes me look about 6 months pregnant too. I can't stop belching either. Anyone else get this?

Hi,
Exactly the same for the first trimester. I ate lots of liquid based foods like ice lollies, soup, salad and fruit. Small meals. Worked out which foods made it worse. But 50% of the time it was random. It passed thankfully some time at the start of the 2nd trimester, but it was unpleasant.

Yes!!!
11 weeks tomorrow and I seem to have just expanded over the past few days, particularly in the late afternoon/evening. I feel enormous!

Yeah I'm same and I'm just shy of 10 weeks. Finding myself that grains, rice, potatoes etc make me bloat like crazy - only way to get rid of it is burp/pass wind or be like Harry Potters aunt who blew up lol.
