Bloated and cranky

Msteach09

I am only 10 weeks and 4 days but man- I swear I look bigger than some women who are 5 months! My jeans no longer fit (just bought the BeBand) and no matter what I put on, I feel larger than I should.
Ive only gained about 6 pounds since being pregnant, which is a little much for the first tri- but to be fair, I had lost 5 when I was sick so long. I gained 2 of the pounds from all the fluids in the hospital- but still! My tummy is so bloated and I just feel not cute! LOL Im not mad by this, just didnt think i would have to deal with looking so large so quickly! Especially when people ask how far along I am and I have to say "10 weeks" and then they kinda give you a weird look! LOL... oh wells, I am trying to enjoy every minute.

I totally know the feeling.  I would feel much better about it if I actually looked pregnant rather than fat and bloated!
