I’m currently 11 weeks pregnant & have been bloated for what feels like the whole pregnancy so far! My stomach is rock hard and like a balloon! Any tips on how to help with this please? 🙏🏻

I get this too and it sucks. I always aim to drink water throughout the day (2 litres), go for a short walk after every time I eat and drink peppermint tea for trapped wind/bloating.

Peppermint tea really helped me.

I think it is just part of the deal. Peppermint tea doesn't do anything for me. I occasionally take a Rennie for wind relief, which might help a little, but not much. Overnight sleep usually helps the most, but it comes back by the evening no matter what I do

Thanks for your responses, will try the peppermint tea & hope it helps 🤞🏻
