I know it's just bloat but...

in 1st Trimester

I feel HUGE today. ?I think it's early for me to even be having this much of a bloat issue, but I'm not sure. Everyone who knows said I "look pregnant" today at work. ?When I came home I put my stuff away, got settled etc. and then looked at my DH and said "Look at this" as I pointed to my belly. ?He said "I know- I noticed it as soon as you walked through the door but didn't want to say anything." ?I was really hoping to keep this a secret until 12 wks but I don't know if I'm going to be able to. ?I'd almost rather tell people than have them think I'm gaining so much weight!

?Rant over.?

    That actually makes me feel really relieved. ?I was starting to worry that I've been eating too much (I have been feeling really nauseous when I eat anything remotely healthy) and that I might be gaining weight too quickly. ?I've been reading other posts that some women don't show at all until 20 weeks and it made me a little paranoid. :) ?It's such a great feeling to know I'm not alone. ?Thanks for sharing!

    i'm ok in the morning, but by around lunch time the bloat has swelled and by dinner time, i feel HUGE!  :)  at least it is the holiday season and i can pass it off as eating too much turkey ;)

    I think alot of us had bloat really bad around 6,7,8ish weeks....but for me, it all died down, and then I started to notice more of a distinct little bump once I hit 12 weeks.

    Testify!  I have good days and bad, but today my pants were TIGHT and my boss (who's KU, and dying for me to tell her that I am too) teased me all day.  I put on PJs when I got home and DH and I were just discussing... I look KU!  I mean, LO is teency, so this is all me!  And, I've only put on about 3 lbs.  Yay, bloat.  Thbbt!
