Tummy skin tight and stretched

Currently 18 weeks. Tummy skin feels stretched and tight and sometimes I find myself “sucking in” to hold my tummy. Feels like the skin can rip open. Is this normal?

Moisturise your skin with stretch Marks cream, oil or any oil based cream to give your skin the elasticity to stretch without pain/tightness.

Start to do some yoga to help to skin stretch and keep your belly moisturised
