Question about De-Worming Process/Bloat

I took my newly adopted kitten (approx 3-4 months old) to the vet this past week. She was positive for hookworms, roundworms, and coccidia. While I was there, they mentioned that it was probably "why she had a bloated belly" - which honestly I hadnt even noticed, nor did I even think it was prominent when they pointed it out.

I've been giving her daily treatments as prescribed, she has 3 more days to go - then one "booster" de-wormer in another week, back the vet in 2 weeks. I havent noticed anything in her stools, but I have noticed that she's beginning to appear more bloated.

My question is, could this be a result of the treatment? Is she bloated because the worms are "fighting" the medication? I don't mean to be completely oblivious - but my first thought was its one of those "gets worse before it gets better" things. She doesnt appear to be in any kind of discomfort, and her energy has come back ten fold since she started the treatments.

I'll call the vet if I think its getting worse, but in the meantime I was hoping to find some insight or if anyone could share a similar experience I'd be more than appretiative!

Thanks!

It does take some time to kill all the worms, which is why they get another dose a week later. and then retested the following week. Then there is the possibility of needing more medication. Keep a eye on her and if you feel uncomfortable, take her back in.

Was she also treated for tapeworms?  Those require a different worming med.  If she had fleas at all, she'll have tapeworms.  That also causes a bloated belly.

Thank you for your responses! She came to the shelter clean (of fleas) and was given frontline as a preventative. I did find 2 dead fleas on her - granted I'm sure it only takes 1 to infect with tapeworm, but she didn't/doesn't have a flea problem by any means. I've closely inspected her since, combed her and nothing else has turned up. Are there any other signs I should be looking for? And is this something would've been included in the test when they found the other worms? They did blood and fecal.
 

My vet told me that a cat will get every flea on them, unlike dogs.  Once ingested, they develop the tapeworms in their intestines.  Usually, you can see white rice-looking casings where your kitty lays or if you're like me, you see the worm hanging out of the kitty's anus. (Gross!!)  My guy was treated 3 times for worms and finally got it taken care of.
 

Definitley gross!! I've been keeping a close eye. Nothing abnormal in the litterbox, no rice-like casings anywhere - I've gotten to the point I'm grabbing at white bits of fuzz on the couch and cat thinking I found something lol...just lint.
