Bloated & uncomfortable

I know I shouldn't be moaning already as I'm only 8 weeks pregnant. And my second pregnancy I do weigh more than I did than my first child a few years ago. But I look so pregnant already and this bloated feeling by afternoons is 😭 I'm not eating anymore than normal and I'm drinking enough water.
Can anyone recommend anything ? Thanks

Lots of peppermint tea
Simeticone
Look on YouTube for yoga for bloating videos, sounds daft but really helped!

I feel the exact same, I’m 10 weeks and feel about 30 by the evening. I cried today because I started to think I can’t do another pregnancy for 9 months. Sorry I don’t have much advice but just so u know you aren’t alone, Hope you are ok xx

Lots of water and walking can help. Be careful about peppermint tea - apparently it’s not a good idea to drink much in early pregnancy.

One glass of water, on empty stomach in the morning👍🏻works every time.
Also, eating porridge for breakfast help immensely.
