Oh my lord, my stomach is so bloated, any remedies, I'm normally a size 6 so anything shows up on me, second pregnancy but think my jeans won't fit soon 🙈

I think it's completely normal to have bloating then go to a baby bump. I was always a jeans woman, but for the last 7 months I've been living in leggins. It's not really my style but I was sick of feeling uncomfortable.

Peppermint tea - I’ve been quite lucky with bloating (nausea is horrendous though) but my sister had terrible bloating and swore by peppermint tea.

I had terrible bloating with my second baby and I’m a size 6 too. I found jeans very uncomfortable to wear from about 5 weeks so moved to leggings. I was in maternity leggings before 12 weeks as I had a very noticeable bump!
I tried to avoid too much caffeine, eating too late and drank water.
