What Causes Bloating In Stomach?
Good morning! I am 42 years old, slim and give birth once. I am confused of what my friends always ask, "Are you pregnant?" But actually am not. it's because they see that may tummy becomes bigger.. and i don't have any symptoms its just that my bowel movement is not regular (2 to 3 times a week) ... is that one cause of bigger tummy? i haven't go to the doctor yet because i am afraid what will he/she may say. Thanks!
