I know with my second the bloating was so bad I couldn't wear my pants starting at 5 weeks and lasting until around 8 weeks. I know for me it did let up around 8 weeks or so.
I felt bloated around my 5th weeks really really bad. I thought I was gonna die. So far it really hasnt been back but I dont remember that from my 1st pregnancy.
i'm 5 weeks w/first pregnancy and have bloating off and on but I"ve found that drinking more water than anything else helps! I pee more which stinks but the bloat goes down considerably. Of course, i know its not that easy if you've already had your first child. Then again..my jeans are tighter but i weigh the same so maybe my legs and as* bloat too? hehehe
Hi, I'm 8 wks along and it's my first so I'm new at this! I'm also really bloated and feel like I'm showing way too early. Does the bloating ever subside or does the belly just continue to get bigger? I really don't want anyone to know before 3 months, so this is getting difficult!
I too am 5 weeks and am extremely bloated too! I was starting to think maybe it was more than one... but its not.. it is my 4th after all... :)
I've read that after your first baby you start to show earlier with the next pregnancy(ies).
Its just weird. I don't want someone to come up to me and say "Wow, how far are you?" and I'd be like 5 weeks. I'd feel like an idiot. Well at least now I knw I am not the only one who shows very early.
I started showing about 6 to 8 weeks with my last two.
Very normal! I always "showed" early because of bloating. I am 36.2 weeks with my 4th and I swear I started showing immeditily with my 3rd and 4th baby:)
