Advice for clothing for women who struggle with bloating
Hi everyone. One of my biggest struggles with constipation has been how difficult it has been getting dressed and how uncomfortable I have been leaving the house since my severe bloating began, especially as a very skinny woman. I wanted to share some kinds of clothing that have made this easier for me that other women may find helpful.
“Babydoll” style tops. Covers bloat completely. Tightest right under the chest and then is flowy.
HIGH WASIT SKIRTS!! I have found denim does a particularly good job of hiding bloat.
Pairing tight flare pants with baggy tops that reach your hips
Dresses in general! I have begun wearing lots of flowy, sundress type dresses even casually because sometimes it is the only thing that can cover my bloat and still have me looking put together.
Feel free to share any other tips you have for dressing with bloat or share any items you have found do a particularly good job at covering it. I spent months not leaving the house at all because I was so uncomfortable and embarrassed by how my bloating made me look.
