When did your bloating go?

Lu28 · Sep 22nd, 2008, 10:57 AM

Hi girls!

Like alot of you, I've been having horrible bloating for the past few weeks, especially in the afternoon and evening - if I don't hold my tummy in I look like I'm about 5 months gone and it's got absolutely nothing to do with a baby bump!!

I was just wondering at what stage the bloat tends to disappear? I'm 12 weeks on Friday and am just dying to not be this uncomfortable anymore!

i have no idea hun sorry, but im the same as you ! when i stand up it does infact look like a pregnancy bump, and its firm too, but when i sit down it just goes into rolls

I'm just constantly sucking my tummy in so I don't look huge, it's exhausting!

I was really bloated from when I was still expecting af until this morning when everything looked and felt like 'normal'.. I was starting to forget how my stomach looked before!!

Altho I'm pretty sure this won't last and I'll get bloated again

Youre 11 weeks about. It is not going to go away. In fact you are going to start to blow up soon. Don't suck youre tummy in. You are supposed to show. A belly bump consists of many things not just a food bloat, but blood increase to the abdomen area, your uterus is now the size of a grape fruit plus many other factors. It's not from fat sweety. Why don't you just let it out and show it off? I am 9 weeks and look 5 months. I let it out and wear maternity clothes. If I were to suck it in all day it would still stick out and it would hurt. Hugs I hope you feel better soon
