Woke Up to a Shoker...Am I Bloated or Showing??

jelin

Hi Ladies

 

I woke up yesterday to find my stomach bulging out like a watermelon.  I just completed week 12.  I have no clue if i'm bloated or showing??? How can I find out?  Is there a way to tell the difference?  

 Here are a few things I mainly ate the past couple of days:

-Lots of dairy products

-bagels/cream cheese

-white rice

-candy (considering it was Halloween

 Then yesterday I cut all these out and went on to eat foods high in fiber such as oatmeal, fruits, veggies, and drank lots of water...

 I had a couple light bowel movements (don't mean to share too much here

But my stomach is still big!! How can I pop out like that over night??

 

Any tips on how to know if i'm just extremely bloated or showing?

 

Thanks a bunch

My mom did when she was expecting me she went in for a nap woke up and nothing fit its why she had me get maternity clothes to have in the house in the begining

I never really popped with my first child, but many of my friends describe something similar to what you are talking about.  All of a sudden there was no sucking it in.  I would guess you were starting to show.  It's about that time anyway.

My mom told me she slowly grew, and didn't have the big "pop out" at the end.  She warned me I might show pretty early too.

I felt this way around 10 weeks, one morning I woke up to what looked like a full blown baby bump! It never fully went away, but got a little smaller and then bigger, then smaller depending on time of day. A lot of Bumpies told me it was my guts moving (eww i know) and I was just bloated. But I was 2 weeks less far as you at that point.

But your about at that point where it could be baby. Probably mixed with some bloat of course!
