It could be bloating...

Try drinking more water, eating more fiber and having smaller meals. It may be worth keeping a food diary to see what is causing you to bloat up and then avoid those (more gassy) foods.

Hope that helps and you're not too uncomfortable x

Bloating and slow digestion probably. Are you taking Pregnacare? I found when I was taking it the bloating and slow digestion was crazy!! I found out late that Pregnacare increases that but once I did find out I stopped immediately.

Eat small meals and sip water regularly. I also found camomile tea really helps me; especially before bed.

Hope you get some relief xx

Thanks x. Please is there any other name for that tea or how does that tea look like?

Sorry, I misspelled it. It's Chamomile Tea. If you type it in Google you'll see loads of them and they sell them in supermarkets in the tea section. You can try the Clipper brand see the link : hollandandbarrett.com/shop/...

My friend was big at 7 weeks was massive by the end some people just show really early
