Q: Ugh My Belly

Hello all,
well I finally got into my gyno and family doctor and I had a full physical and every type of blood test you could think of. I got a call that they want to discuss my results on monday..... So I will find out then if I have any issues. Assuming I do cuz I dont get my period often like every 3-5 months? And I have been off bcp for over a year and still no baby yet. I am nervous cuz I hope its not bad news.

One more question: in your early pregnancy does your belly feel bloated, kinda hard like you cant suck it in lol and can I say gassy lol. Thats how mine feels and I have no idea why, its been like that for weeks now.

Thank you

Well when I was in my first trimester I definitely had that 'can't suck my tummy in' feeling. It was weird. Even though there was no significant bump I just could not hold my tummy in no matter how I tried!

Obviously I don't know if that means that you are pregnant but i've got my fingers crossed for you!

Thanks for posting, yeah I find it weird that I cant even suck it in if I had to cuz I feel so bloated. And I am so gassy that its kinda embarrassing lol. I am a vegetarian and I eat pretty healthy like protein and veggies and whole grains so I dont know. Even during my physical last tues my doctor said my tummy felt bloated a bit and it hurt when she pushed on it a bit. But the doctors called and said they had to discuss my blood test results for monday so am a bit nervous...... I will find out then hopefully?
