showing?

2 of my friends and my Dad have all said that I am showing already.  I'm only 11 weeks pregnant.  It is my first pregnancy, so I didn't even think it was possible.  I keep telling them I'm just getting fat because I've felt so sick that I am much less active, but they insist that I don't look fatter - that it is just in my belly area.

 Anyone else showing this early?

 

 

Re: showing?

  • I've had a bit of a tummy since around week 12 - my DH really noticed it at the beginning of that week.  And a few people have noticed and asked me if I'm pregnant, LOL.  Good thing I actually am or I would've been annoyed ;)

    It's not baby that's showing, but I think with the uterus growing it's pushing things outward, so that plus bloat = tummy.  My doc showed me how to feel for my uterus and it's definitely not what's sticking out, but it's taking up space where my usual gut stuff is, so all of that has to go somewhere :)

  • I feel like I'm showing too.  Even if it is just bloat still, people know I'm pregnant, so I don't feel uncomfortable with it.  I know it's really early, but maybe like PP said, maybe it's my ute pushing everything else out.  Either way, I'm ready for my baby bump!
  • Three people have asked me this week if I'm pregnant so I think it is starting to become noticeable. I thought it was kind of early too!

  • Yep, I've only gained 2-3 lbs but I have a definite belly.  It's not huge and probably not noticable to many other than myself and MH.

  • People can say what they want...bloat, belly, but thisat 12 weeks. I'm definitely pregnant and can't hide it.  Granted, it is my 3rd pregnancy in 4 years, so I'm pretty stretched.

  • im only 10 weeks and i am def sticking out. some of it is bloat but seeing as how ive lost 5lbs i know its the baby moving everything around. plus i have a very tipped uterus. so instead of kind of growing up and out it's just growing out!
  • yes...my bloat doesn't help, but there is definitely some changes just above the uterus...I've always assumed it was the organs being pushed around...someone thought it was twins (especially since they know I did ivf) but there is just one in there :)

  • I'm pretty sure I'm showing, too. I actually spent a good part of my morning googling other women's pregnancy bellies at 11 wks to see how I compare.  Lol.  I realize this might seem crazy but I also had a couple friends be like "oh look at you're cute little belly" and it kinda freaked me out.  I used to go to the gym every day, but since m/s started I haven't been, and really felt like I'm just getting a pudge.  I haven't gained weight, my jeans still fit, and I don't feel bloated at all but I definitely have a muffin top going on when I wear my blue jeans.  So, no, you're not alone.  And it totally makes me feel better that I'm not alone, either!  I just can't wait until I actually have an obvious baby bump.

  • I have a little "pot belly" now, as my Mayo Clinic book so delicately put it, lol. DH and I are probably the only ones who can tell though because I don't wear form fitting shirts because nothing feels good touching my stomach.

  • i just look like i've been drinking too much beer ;)  my belly looks just like a beer belly and i'm super self-conscious about it.  my fiance tells me i better 'start accepting' i'm pregnant and that i'm going to gain weight and look bigger.  i just wish i looked pregnant instead of chubby
