    Hi Vicky, dont worry, bloating, cramping, severe gas are all part and parcel of this wonderful journey us ladies are all forced to take. I have all of these symptoms all the time. Just about to start the rounds of all the tests again and I'm sure they will all come back normal. But dont stress because that will just make you feel worse. XXX

    I'm going through just the same thing. Since my last period I have been bloated, burping as the day goes on for about two weeks now. I am currently going through tests to eliminate the worse am I being positive that this is just one of the lengthy list of symptoms that the menopause throws at you. Thankfully reading through this forum makes me feel that I am not alone smile

      Hi are you feeling bloated all the time. I'm fine in morning but as the day goes on I feel cramps and bloated worst at night x

      Hi yes, the morning is ok and then as soon as I have breakfast it starts. I've also got pelvic pressure that comes and goes and this is normally when I'm sitting down. When I'm on the go (have dogs and horses), I have no symptoms at all. The minute I sit down it starts and like you the nights are worse. I've got my blood test tomorrow and ultrasound next week to eliminate the worse worries and I hope this is just the womb shutting up shop and sticking up two fingers! biggrin

      Hi hun, did your husband not take you for better or worse and in sickness and in health! He should be totally supporting you right now and how old are your children? If teenagers then old enough to be made to understand that mom needs alot of love and support right now. I have been so lucky and totally amazed by the support of my partner and 2 boys. My 20 year old son will hold me in his arms if I have a panic attack and my adopted son also 20 will hold one of my hands and talk to me and bring me down. My partner cant do enough for me. He spoils me rotten and is very sympathetic and understanding. To top it off my dr also male, bends over backwards to do what he can for me. So dont shy away from your loved ones they may just surprise you! XXX

      Oh I see, from what you tell me now I understand alot more. I thought you felt you couldnt talk to anyone close to you. Your older children should be more understanding because at the end of the day they only are who they are, and where they are today because of all the love, care and support youve given to them. I really feel for you having a husband in the service of his country. It must be so very hard for you when he is deployed away from home. You must be a very strong woman to deal with that in itself. Make sure that you keep in contact with the forum whenever you feel you need someone. I know some of us are probably very far away from you but we can always give you our love and support from here. Feel free to message me anytime you need to vent how you feel or you need reassurance and even just some company, someone to talk with to stop you from getting down. Always here for you. XXX
