Feeling so very full

hajis-sweetie · Dec 24th, 2009, 06:41 AM

Hi,

I am literally just 4 weeks pregnant but for the past day or so, whenever I eat I feel overly full and bloated for ages after! Even if I try to eat less it doesn't seem to matter. Is this just a general thing or a symptom? Has anyone else had this, I find it hard to believe it is a symptom for me due to only being 4 weeks.

your body sloooows down digestion- so this is perfectly normal.

Try refresher sweets- they seem to help!

I felt like that when I first got pg, but it's gone now.

at just past 12 weeks, I still feel like this.
I eat a tiny amount, and feel (and look) like I have had a massive 10 course meal!!
It is uncomfortable to sit, to lie and to stand.
It also makes me feel rather nauseous.
I hope it goes away soon

That's exactly how I felt starting at 4 weeks and it's only gotten mildly better in the last couple days finally. Mind you, I just ate my Christmas dinner and am extra stuffed now (and I couldn't finish my plate let alone have dessert).

i feel the same and thats not like me at all!! I hardly managed to eat much of my xmas dinner yesterday, although I managed to eat quite a bit at a buffet last night so maybe thats the way forward, i just picked all evening lol...ive heard little and often is meant to help.

It very normal to feel bloated early on. Its not that its the baby just all the other things to do with pregnancy. It gets a little better before it gets worse again lol. Best wishes!
