In the stomach, digestion of proteins occurs from the reaction with hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice.

You have been eating healthier lately and you sometimes get an uneasy feeling in your stomach what is it?

Your system may be adjusting to eating more fiber. You probably have not been thoroughly cleaning your intestines if your previous diet was eating junk foods. It takes awhile before you get all of that out. Expect gas! It does get better as your colon heals. Drink lots of water! Even a small fast, with nothing but lots of liquids (cranberry juice is very good). Twenty-four hours is the most I would do. You will feel better. I hope you continue until your diet is healthy.

Do your stomach get hard on the top of your stomach first?

No, during pregnancy, the uterus grows up from the pubic bone, therefore getting hard on the bottom first. But during the first trimester, your stomach shouldn't be hard at all. The uterus doesn't even rise up above the pubic bone until at least 12 weeks, which is the end of the first trimester.

Can yeast expand in your stomach?

Nutritional yeasts are fine to eat, add to cooking, and use in smoothies. Baking yeast is used in yeast doughs like bread, raised sticky buns, and some cookies. Do not eat raw dough made with baking yeast. If your child eats the dough while you are not looking, call your doctor or go to the emergency room. If you plan a wilderness trip where you will be cooking and possibly using baking yeast, please consult an authority on the subject i.e. a doctor. He/she might advise inducing vomiting in that situation. However, there is always the risk of aspirating (inhaling) the vomit. So, in sum, please use common sense and avoid the possible situation from happening. Being acutely aware of the children while baking is a good starting point.
