Pregnant after a Loss

For those who had a loss around 12/13/14 weeks

Were you more bloated than average around week 9/10/11 this time?

I know there's "baby memory", where second pregnancies show earlier than first PGs, but is there anything like "bloat memory"? Where you are more bloated earlier? Seriously, I look like I'm rocking a 15 week bump and I'm only 10 weeks. My jeans don't close anymore.

  • I had a loss at 12 weeks last time, and that whole pregnancy I was sooo bloated.  This time, however, I never got any bloat at all; I'm still in all my regular jeans.

    It could just be a case of every pregnancy is different?  Either way, good luck & H&H 9 months!!

  • my first loss was at 11 weeks - so just under your question, but no, this time around - where things are so far so good - I had so much less bloat than that pregnancy. That pregnancy I was loving my comfy pants and even bought maternity jeans at 8w. I'm now 15 weeks and just starting to bust out of my pants. I think every pg is different.
    m/c#1 07/16/08 (11 weeks), m/c#2 10/10/08 (8 weeks). and then nothing since except every test possible (no answers). IUI#1 and #2: BFNs Super lucky to be buddies with Peetie. Our out of nowhere, surprise DD born 5/29/2011
  • My losses have been at 8 wks and 11wks, so it's a little less than what you're asking. But my first pg, I had no bloat at all, my second one I expereinced a little bloat at 6wks and it just started getting firm feeling the weekend before I found out about my loss. This time around, I got REALLY bloated at 6 weeks and stayed that way. I still have bloating issues, even though it's been firming up for the past couple of weeks.

  • My loss was found at 9 weeks, occured at seven and I had no bloat at all.  This time around, I was extremely bloated right away.  I could no longer wear my regular pants at 8 weeks, it was so bad! I felt silly jumping into maternity clothes and the belly band so early, but it was insane!
  • I am a 12w loser and it was my first so I was so naive, I had no clue.

  • I had a loss at 14 weeks, then a loss at 10 weeks.  For the one at 10 I wasn't any more or less bloated.  However, this being my fifth pregnancy, I seem to get bigger, quicker with each one despite often times losing weight in the first trimester from morning sickness.  Go willing I make it to 14 weeks and beyond this time around and then I'll let you know.

    Go ahead, embrace the bump.

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

  • My loss was right around 11/12 weeks, but I had a pmp, so my ute was at week 14 in size.  That was 2 years before this pregnancy.  For this pg at 8-10weeks I so so bloated, I thought I looked 20weeks pregnant.  My pants didn't button, my shirts were all way too snug, ect.  But the bloat slowly went away by week 12 and my pants magically buttoned again.  Then I got a real bump a few weeks later.  HTH!
