Weigh in: Belly or Bloat?

in 1st Trimester

So...I promise it won't offend me one bit no matter what you ladies have to say.  I have been taking belly pictures and for a few weeks I had some noticeable bloat, then it went away, and today week I noticed this...image

Please forgive my messy shirt in the first picture, we were painting!  What do you think...is the bloat back? Or am I starting to get a little belly?

    I'd say if this is your first, its most likely bloat... I have the same thing.  I can tell baby is starting to pop up but hasn't quite made it into my bloated belly...

    I would have to go with bloat. I thought I was starting to pop when I looked like that as well and just this week I noticed more definition to my stomach that really made it look like a bump.

    I think it looks like belly. But, I also say if it makes you happier to see a belly instead of bloat...then it's definitely belly! Big Smile

    bloat. Your uterus isn't even up past your pelvic bone yet.

    Bloat or maybe just a little weight gain.

    It looks cute, though!!

    I know all you girls want to think it's a bump... but it's not. Like the previous posts have said, your uterus isn't even up that high yet, no matter who you are.

    I don't know, but I do know that whatever it is is cute!!  I vote baby! Even bloat is caused by the baby so consequently it would all be baby.  If P is Q and Q is P then P=Q. LOL. Follow my logic?

    I thought that I had belly this early on and I promise when you get a belly you will know it ... you will not have to post and ask because things feel so different. It won't be long and you will have a bump but right now you still dealing with bloat.

    If this is your first I wouldn't consider it baby belly just yet.
