Hello,
I don't think that you are pregnant because the IUD will be working for 5 years once you put it. The bloating may be related to colon issues, irritation bowel movement or indigestion. Try to avoid foods that cause gas such lentils vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli) and fruits (prune).
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
