I could’ve written this exact post OP. Feeling the exact same and I’m 25 weeks pregnant. I think it’s indigestion but I can’t be sure, I’m going to ask my midwife about omephrozole. Did you have a full meal shortly before going to bed?

I had omperazole it made me sick at the start I’d pregnancy I have gaviscon instead helps with the indigestion. I been noticing it few days I thought same thing maybe indigestion but even when I stay away from food that will cause it still happens I barely ate a full meal yesterday and felt full let me now what the midwife says ! Also would say 2 hours before bed I ate

I’m so glad it’s not just me!
Im 25 weeks and really feeling this at the moment. “Full and tight” is a perfect way to describe it. I get full SO quickly after a meal and then feel full for ages. It’s like that post-Christmas dinner feeling, but every day!

I had this around the same time. Maybe earlier. So I think normal.

This is normal. The baby is starting to push your organs up, in my expertise it passes after a few weeks. Think your body needs to get used to all the changes
