I'm 7w4d and am feeling like it's getting hard to suck it in.. I don't think I'm any more bloated than normal but I'm feeling a bit larger than normal.. I'm sure no one else notices but I sure do.. anyone else??
I'm a big girl. I'm afraid that I will never actually show, lol.
Despite having lost six pounds since finding out (eating better, more water) I am totally feeling the bloat as well. My pants were uncomfortably tight this morning.
I'm so bloated I had to buy maternity scrub pants at 5 weeks. I look 4 months preggo already. I couldn't handle how tight my pants were .. I figured, I'm going to need maternity pants soon anyway, why not get full use of them and be comfortable during my 12 hour shifts
Yea I can't suck in like usual and it sucks lol. I'm having a hard time looking cute in my summer outfits. Thank God fall and winter are coming and I can bust out the baggy comfy clothes and be fat , bloated and happy
Only 5+2 and I feel huge! I've lost two pounds but have so much bloat I'm in my maternity jeans. Wth? Apparently second pregnancies are different because I had nothing until 10 weeks last time and that was only a tiiiiiny bump.
Really, it just depends on the position you carry. Every person is different. You can carry further back, or further up. But right now, at 7w4d I am very bloated but can't button my pants. In fact, I hold them together with a hair band in order to button them. It just depends on the person
I'm 5w 2d as well. 2nd pregnancy and I realize I'm unconsciously sucking my tummy in. It's time to let it hang out! I know I'm likely bloated, but I do think I'll show earlier this pregnancy.
@Whitfry no worries hun, you will show. With my first I was 5'9 and over 250 and I still got a bump after 25 weeks.
Thank you for sharing. I am paranoid about just looking even fatter than I already am and not pregnant. I am also paranoid about the doctor being an ass about it. I am going to a new doctor because my husband wants one that will deliver at our local hospital, and my other doctor was about 50 minutes away.

Totally bloated and loving it! This is my 5th pregnancy. Although I don't remember feeling this bloated with the other 4. Barely fitting in my normal clothes. I'm 4 weeks 5 days.
@Whitfry I was over 200 with my first and started showing around 20 weeks. People will know it's a bump :-) I actually felt the best I ever have about my body when I was pregnant last time.
I'm 7wks pregnant with my first and I can't get over how bloated I am. I thought it would take at least 10-12wks to show. My pants are tight and all I wanna do is wear dresses or long tops with leggings. I pray to God I don't look like a hoss by month 6!! Lord help me.
I feel the same way!!! Pants/shorts are starting to feel way too tight and uncomfortable!!!! I know its bloating but i have a bump! Def cant suck it in anymore!!!

I TOTALLY owned it today at Costco!! Strangers don't know I'm only 7 weeks! But I definitely had to hold my pants together with a hair tie. Of course, I was hoping not to run into anyone who I do know...
I'm just over 6 weeks, and I already have people asking how far along I am lol I'm lucky enough that my bloating is all round and looks like a baby bump... this is my third, so I think my body knows what's up. The looks on people's faces when I tell them I'm only 6 weeks is hilarious though..most think it's twins. ..I tell them pretty sure it's gas hahaha
I'm 5weeks 4 days and feel huge. This is my 4th and don't remember feeling this bloated with others. I actually look pregnant already. Not good when your trying to keep quiet till your 12 weeks scan
I about 4 to 5 weeks and I feel huge. I having my 6th, my 2nd after a tummy tuck. I didn't show until my 5th month on my 5th pregnancy . My pants won't close. :-S
Nothing here so far, but I've been pregnant for like 5 minutes (5 wks) so I'm in no rush. With my first I didn't even get a tiny little bump, which really just looked like I ate a big meal, until about 18 weeks. I'm excited and nervous to see what happens this time around...I have maternity pants on stand by!
I almost took a picture of my huge bloat baby the other day just because it was so dang impressive. Pretty sure my body is trying to outdo itself from last time in that department, but I'm not holding my breath for an actual baby bump any time soon.
I still have a little leftover baby belly from my dd plus the bloat. So I'm just feeling super sexy over here.
Edit, to answer the question though, no at this stage it's all bloat. Not showing.
OMG! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that feels like this. This never-ending bloat is just NOT fun. I didn't know about this part...LOL! I have been releasing gas when it comes (sorry for my coworkers, but there's no holding this), and I feel better for 5 minutes...then I just blow back up again and the cycle repeats...ALL DAY LONG!
