I had this with my last pregnancy and here it is again!! I am getting extremely bloated from anything I eat. The discomfort level is like 8/10. I feel so miserable and I just wanna lay down but I have a job and a busy toddler that's keeping me busy. It keeps me from sleeping well, but when I do wake up in the morning it's not there. Till I eat something....
Did anyone have this and found something that works? Please help. This is the worst pregnancy symptom.

I found 'Optibac probiotics for pregnancy' helped when the bloating got too much

I’m 13 weeks and my bloating has only just settled, sorry. I look less pregnant now than I did at 5 weeks! If it’s wind causing the bloat I found peppermint tea helped, plus doing the downward dog pose to get things moving. I also swapped from prenatal vitamins with iron and just took a vitamin D, C and folic acid supplement which really helped my digestion.

Same with me, hugely bloated from the day I found out virtually and I was only about three weeks pregnant!!

Glad to hear I'm not the only one. Thank you all for making this seem like a normal response. @Longbarn5 @Allaboard209 @Scaredycats @Summer2424

I will try the probiotic. I honestly willing to try anything as long as it's safe. I feel so uncomfortable 😣 I'm having a hard time sleeping. And yes, I look like I'm pregnant already which is like.... Not cool since we aren't telling anyone any time soon
