Edge III bridge giving me hell again...

Ok, so I was finally sick of it snapping my strings so I was told to change from 9's to 10's. So I changed it to 10's and that's when it started giving me hell. Every time I tried to tune the strings, the bridge keeps getting pulled up. To try and counteract it, I already increased the tremolo spring tension and it didn't do no good. I tried adjusting the intonation screws but it didn't help either. I've been told that you also have to let the strings stretch if they're a heavier guage. is that true?

Does it require a truss rod adjustment? Or anything a self taught tech shouldn't attempt at home.
