Just that really.. when did you notice your bloating had gone down?

I am 8 weeks now but I look about 30 weeks and feel just as uncomfortable too because of how bloated I am!!!!

Someone please tell me it's not for much longer 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@amberob89 congratulations ☺️

I'm 14 weeks and 5 days - bloating has gone down considerably. The bloating flares up at night when I've eaten my dinner resulting in me needing to sit in my boyfriends boxers 😂 I haven't bought any maternity clothes yet, difficult to find petite maternity!

Im the same as @honeybooboo1394. By about week 13/14 the day time bloating reduced considerably but always at night I felt like I was waddling around with a proper baby bump. But weeks 14-18 I'd wake up flat stomached. By 18 weeks though the bloating had stopped, but a little harder permanent bump appeared. Hang in there @amberob89, only 32 weeks to go!!!

My bloating just very gradually turned into bump. I didn't really change size between 8wks and 22 wks. I felt enormous the whole time and was in maternity gear - now I look back and realise I was actually pretty small and the leggings I bought don't quite cover my bump even though I have ages to go (28 wks now). I'm still loads bigger in the evening than the morning though and definitely get bloat when I eat too much/too late...

I’m 15 weeks tomorrow and my bloating has gone down considerably, I felt huge from about 7 weeks up until this week. As other posters have said it’s more in the evening I notice my tummy is large although it’s definitely not flat in the mornings anymore xx

Thank you for your replies.
We haven't told anyone our news yet and I already feel like I'm trying to hide a bump 🙈
Looking forward to it turning into an actual bump!!

@honeybooboo
ASOS are good for petite maternity wear and the prices are really reasonable too
