Hi, I am 15 weeks pregnant and I am experiencing (so I think) slow digestion and bloating. I am gassy all the time. I try to eat small frequent meals but I think the good gets stuck up in my belly and I feel awfully bloated. I read somewhere that swelling of the stomach area can may be the sign of a miscarriage where the bleeding is only internal. Is that true? I am worried please help.
