If you eat it...: ...All the time and usually don't get bloated, it's probably not that. What else are you eating? Lots of salt? Is it possible you're pregnant? There's no way to say when it will go away without knowing the cause. If it gets worse, won't go away, or you have any other symptoms (pain, difficulty breathing, facial puffiness, difficulty putting on your shoes, changes in urine etc.) see your doctor.

Peanut butter: Peanuts commonly cause food sensitivities. Symptoms can be GI bloating and more. Peanuts are also often genetically modified (gmo) crops, and aflatoxin contamination is common (you would be sicker than you are). Lots of reasons here to avoid peanut butter, and replace with almond or other true nut butters. (peanut is not a "nut".) stop eating it and see if your symptoms resolve in few days.
