bloat pain real?

[Ginag88]

I am in so much pain. I'm not sure if it's gas or what. It feels like a bloat so bad that I can't even sleep. Is this normal?

So first trimester I had TERRIBLE gas pains. Like, so bad I thought about going to the hospital. I still get them sometimes, but they've eased up a lot. But usually once I let out the room-clearing gas, the pains immediately stopped. I'm not sure if it's the same as what you have, but that's what I found. Hope you feel better soon!

Constipation can also be a contributing factor. I sometimes experience extreme bloat accompanied by a constant, hard cramp feeling that doesn't go away until...well...

Ah, the glamouros joys of pregnancy. I found snacking on a few prunes each day helped to prevent this during my previous pregnancy, while the juice actually worked a little too well for me.
