I haven't been on the boards for awhile but just found out I am pregnant again. So, I am surfing around for new info. Regarding the belly, my doc told me that my bulging belly is due to 2 c-sections, too. Last year I actually got below pre-pregnancy weight thanks to EFI and Pilates- 5'7" and 126lb - and still had the little bulge which would grow as the day progressed - every day! I can't wear tight fitting tops either. Once in a while my stomach is sort of flat but it doesn't ever last for a whole day. I eliminated soy, oats, strawberries and tomatoes (which were all causing pain and gas for me). This helped. However, now that I am 5.5 wks pregnant and just shy of 40 yrs old, you can imagine what my belly looks like already. UGH - it's awful but worth it. IBS won't kill us but it does eat at our vanity!
IBS-C (occasionally A), lactose intolerance, GERD, gas and bloating
