So bloated it hurts?!

[Kmgxx]

Guys, I should be 8weeks 4days pregnant. I have no pregnancy symptoms. Except for today I am feeling and looking SO bloated that it actually hurts and is so uncomfortable?! I work all day on my feet so even walking around I’m feeling pressure on my belly. Is it normal? Any advice on relieving ?

Totally normal. I looked about 8 months pregnant at 8 weeks, all bloat. I tried the deflatine tablets but they did nothing, nothing worked it just gradually turned into a baby bump

Ginger tea, peppermint tea, fennel tea. Hot water bottle, abdominal massage and lying on your back doing bicycle legs. Hopefully all that will shift some gas.

Totally normal. At 8 weeks I looked full term if I relaxed!! It was awfully uncomfortable. It went after a while, and then I gradually got a bump. Congrats on your pregnancy

Fennel tea is not safe in pregnancy

I can't find any paper that mentions small amounts in the first trimester being dangerous. Very glad to be corrected if you would link to the research though. I am long retired now and would be grateful to be updated.
