your bump

ohjaime

I guess I'm looking for reassurance that I'm not the only one. Obviously it's still a lot of bloat going on there for me, but is anyone else getting more of a bump up top rather than where baby should be moving to? It's strange... My belly wasn't flat before by any means, but it was definitely flat on top if anything. Anyone else feeling/seeing this?

Thats normal.. its all of your intestines moving up into your abdomen more..

Me!  I looked in the mirror today and it just looks like I am getting rolls...not really but I feel like it!  But definitely higher up than my uterus is...but like laouli said, all the organs are starting to move up.

I thought it was just all my fat that i used to be able to suck in is now poking out! haha could be a little of both!

ohjaime

ohh... I get it. So strange. I'm ready for the bump already, not this roll non-sense!

I've been wondering about this too!  My stomach was flat, but I didn't know what this high bloat thing was

My pants fit fine, but I have a roll hanging over lol. I can't wait until the bottom catches up, I'd forgotten about this part.

Yep, my employees were telling me I was "carrying high" 4 weeks ago! I had to tell them my LO was still snuggly in my pelvis.

I have nothing still... I am so jealous of anyone with even a bloat bump. Or an intestine bump! Ill take either

photonbug

Yep, this is me too.  I can not wait to actually show.  Now I just feel fat!

I'm noticing the bloat more these days, last night was crazy. I work from home so I don't get out much. This past weekend I had a party to go to and tried some of my jeans, only 1 fit! I didn't realize I was already growing. I ended up taking advantage of the ON sale and got some maternity jeans. I'm going to Seattle this weekend and need more than 1 pair of jeans for 4 days.

I'm getting the upper belly bloat/shifting organs.  My lower belly is still squishy but my upper belly is getting harder...I guess because things are getting compact?  And I have no energy to suck in so i'm letting it all hang out!  People either think i'm pregnant or i've really let myself go since getting married this summer...lol.

>.< I had a flat stomach before and now I've got the pooch right above my pants hem. Driving me crazy! I'd like to look pregnant now, too!

No, mine is really low and I can't suck it in really.  I haven't gained any weight, but to me my body looks really different.  I kind of wish it were higher so I would be more evened out.  Everything above the belly button is still small and tight - thank you years of ab work, but below it...watch out!

This! We call it a B belly!

I have a nice little round hard bump atm. It looks lovely. But it seems to be an old lady magnet haha

I'm glad you posted this because I am seeing the same thing. Just looking chubby on top. And after Tambcat's trying to find the uterus post last night, I can't find anything. I feel like I am just getting fat!
