My mother is having a lot of bloating to the point where it's visually obvious. Is it due to her kidney disease?

Maybe, or it may be an intestinal issue, or a liver issue, or a heart issue, or a lung issue. She needs to see her doctor.
Maybe. Acid reflux is a common upper hi disorder in patients with chronic kidney disease. Also, if she is diabetic, she can have diabetic gastroparesis. Also, depending on the co morbid condition and stage of kidney disease, she can have fluid overload and bloated feeling.

Bloating is a symptom of many different things. Take her to see her primary care doc for a full evaluation.
Not only kidneys. Should also check the liver and stomach.

Yes. Kidney Disease is known to cause edema which is the medical term for fluid retention or bloating. This can be relieved with a diuretic that can be prescribed by her doctor.
