Progesterone Bloating

Ladies, has anyone had severe bloating whilst on progesterone? I'm not even 5 weeks yet but twice today people commented on my pregnancy asking when I was due etc as I look more like 7 or 8 months gone.

Anything to be done for the bloating? I'm in a wedding party This week and currently worried I won't fit in the dress, even if I do it's so tight I won't be able to hide the bloat bump.

No advice really but just wanted to jump on and say you are not alone. I am 6-7 weeks looking like 6-7 months 😭😭😭. Hoping it improves and no idea how to manage in the meantime.

It's crazy isn't it. When the first stranger asked me yesterday when was I due I was highly offended.. then I caught a glance of myself in the mirror and totally understood. I'm dreading being a bridesmaid as the dress is really tight.
