Is feeling bloated after meals common in the first trimester?

I’m about 7 weeks in and have been feeling really bloated after each meal. Is it common? Anyone experience similar discomfort as well? Are there any home remedies or medications I can take to relieve the discomfort? Thank you for sharing!!

Totally normal! I find ginger tea (there's no caffeine in ginger tea) to be helpful. A cup can make me burp quite a number of times and get rid of the bloatedness as well as heartburn.

😊 Most welcome! Glad to be of help! I've tried a few types of ginger tea from supermarket but real homemade ginger tea is still the best! My husband would slice up the ginger and boil in just enough water for one cup, adding nothing else.
