How can I get rid of the TERRIBLE bloating I'm experiencing in my first trimester?? Can't take a diuretic obviously!
-
Other than drinking a ton of water, I haven't found much to fight it. Just accept the stretchy pants
-
Drinking a lot of water and taking fiber consistently
-
Drinking lots of water and exercise.
-
In my experience - nothing! Eventually it was replaced with a real bump.
-
Acupuncture worked for me when I swelled up late in pregnancy...
-
Try dandelion tea and tons of water and fiber. I havent beat the bloat, and I'm not usually a believer in teas, but I've had it three times and it seems to really help. It makes you pee a lot right after, so drink a good bit of water. Worth a try!

Magnesium. Absolutely kills the bloat. I take 400mg a day. Absolutely essential in the third trimester, but I started in the first.

@sarac: @NeonPink1234: great! and both of those are safe to take in the early weeks? I read something about not too much herbal tea, but dandelion might not fall into that category...
-
@leighleigh: I googled the tea and found it on a couple "best teas for pregnancy" bit they didn't specify about trimesters. You could ask your doctor just to be safe!
-
I didn't. It eventually just turned into bump.
