This isn't unusual.
The extra progesterone in your system generally slows down the passage of food and waste materials through your intestinal tract causing constipation, bloating, gas buildup and often some degree of pain and discomfort.
This is what some women swear blind are fetal movements at just a few weeks into the pregnancy - they are mistaking digestive activity with uterine sensations.

My first baby sat on my sciatic nerve and caused pain when I moved my right leg toward the end of the pregnancy.
I had the WORST indigestion and heart burn with the first one. Not so bad with the second.
Constipation became a problem later on in both pregnancies... not unusual, but certainly not fun!
With my first baby I craved corn- probably not the best thing for the indigestion!

All kinds of stomach discomfort is normal during pregnancy. That could include cramping, bloating, gas, indigestion, heartburn, nausea and vomiting, constipation, loose stools and weird cravings and aversions.
Each pregnancy is different, so you might feel some different things with this second baby.
If gas is really bothering you try Beano with your meals, or take simethicone to relieve bloating and pressure.

I had a skin condition called PUPP (pruritic urticarial papules and plaques)that developed during the latte part of my pregnancy. It is not contagious, but it is very irritating. It causes severe itching on the stomach, buttocks, legs. I thought I was going to go crazy. Thank God I didn't get it during my second pregnancy.

aw goodness the weird symptoms of pregnancy never end!!you'll become a whole different person. Lets see... your feet might get bigger, dandruff, itchy skin, red blotches on your face, mood swings, nausea, fatigue, theres tons more
Dont get me wrong, this may or may not happen to you, and they usually dont happen all at once!! i dont want to scare you!! its just that your body isnt yours anymore and crazy things happen. oh and once you give birth, most of the symptoms go right away and youll be yourself again!!

I'm 29 weeks and I hiccup at least once every 10 minutes while I'm awake. No kidding!
