11 weeks and super bloated!

by Andi2323, Apr 14, 2009 04:45PM
I am 11 weeks pregnant (at least that is what they tell me) and I feel like I'm a friggin balloon.  The top of my belly is constantly bloated...I don't have gas, I'm not constipated, I just feel huge right there.  I'm nervous because this is my second pregnancy and I really don't remember  having this feeling before, and like I already feel heavy...and I haven't gained any weight... I've actually lost 5 pounds.  Is this normal?

Bloating is a normal pregnancy symptom. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water because you might be retaining water and drinking water (ironically) helps to alleviate that. Ditch the soda, teas and other sugary drinks and try to stick to just water.
