Feeling bloated??

Hi all

I found out last week I am pregnant (about 6-7 weeks we think) and I am feeling some effects - stomach cramps, nausea, sensitivity to smells and foods but I am also feeling really bloated and my tummy is feeling very big.

Has anyone else experienced this and any advice on how to combat it?

Thanks
Daniya.

Hey Daniya
I am now just over 10 wks pg and have been bloated for the last month or so - I think it is water retention and so difficult to do anything about it but wear as comfy clothes as you can :-) I too had a lot of cramping at your stage and am still suffering :-( Although I have not yet put on any weight my tummy has grown and feels really uncomfortable. I have my scan on wednesday so all being well I will treat myself to some nice comfy maternity jeans to help the bloating! Take care :-)
