Late March/Early April Mommies

JellymanKellyJellymanKelly
in 1st Trimester
Do you find the bloat is just out of control in the evenings? Yikes! I am 5w tomorrow and was never this bloated this early on with my first pregnancy. I was able to keep it a secret until after the first trimester with no problem! Now, only a week after I found out I'm pregnant, I have a little bloat-bump by 5pm every day. Geez. If it's already noticeable now, then am I going to be showing by 8 weeks? Surprise It looks like bean #2 is going to "out" me before I am ready to "out" him/her!
She's crafty - and she's just my type.

    I've been bloated since week 5, and it hasn't let up yet.  Seriously considering buying a bella band already, since I can't button my pants as it is.

    I'm there! WIth DD#1 I kept the whole thing hidden the first full 6 months. With DD#2 I was bloated much sooner, the bloat was bad but manageable with a loose shirt, and I was fully showing by week 13. The bloat with this 3rd pregnancy is so bad I already look 3 months pregnant (and I know it is all bloat). I really want to keep this quite the first tri but I am worried how long I will be able too.

    I'm only 4 weeks... no bloating yet, just aching boobs.  I've heard go easy on the salt and increase water (which is counter intuitive).

    My bloat gets worse as the day goes on.  I'm also going to have to go bra shopping much sooner than I thought I would.

    Hah!  I know the feeling.  I actually broke out my smaller maternity work pants. So much more comfortable Wink

    This is baby #2 for me as well and I have horrible bloat.  I actually already bought a Be Band because only a few of my pants still button.  Of course I had a little fluff on the gut before my BFP so I just look fatter.

    I had a nice pooch to begin with and the bloat and gas makes it poke out more I really could pass for a couple months with the 2 combined!!!!! Is that even possible at 4 weeks?

    Oh you all just made me feel so much better... I thought I was insane to think that this could already be because of the baby.... when I get home from work the first thing I want to do is unbutton and get on loose pants.. Its horrible..... I feel like I have a bubble inside me wanting to burst.

    I just got my BFP today and lately the last week or so, I have noticed that bloating at the end of the day is much worse.  Good Luck.

    Ode to the Bella bands, I had them with my DD and loved them and still wear them, and will be wearing them more often.

    I am VERY bloated by the end of the day! That's been happening for about a week and a half. I am normally a size 2 with a flat stomach- I wonder if people are going to notice earlier than I am ready to tell them. 

    My boobs are giant as well- yikes!
