My stomach is SOOOOO round today I didn't look like I was showing at all and then BAM IMO I look 7 months pregnant today :( I can't suck it in and I just feel fat :(

  • Is that the famous "pop" I keep hearing about. Did you "pop?" Is it hard?

  • I'm wearing a mat shirt today and I feel HUGE!  I always feel like I show more in a mat shirt--maybe they're cut to show off the bump?  I have flowy made shirts that still fit and i don't feel like I "show" as much in them.

  • I'm 12 weeks and I'm just huge!! After I eat it's so much worse.  I wish it was just a little happy low belly, but it's so hard up top and just squishy below my belly button. I look 9 months pregnant.  It's just gross! My BF was joking around and called me "chubs" after I ate yesterday bc I was so huge!

    I personally think its too early to "pop" I'm not even 14 weeks yet(will be in 2 days but still!) the bottom is hard and I can't suck my stomach in at all without losing breath Tongue Tied

    Maybe its the ddress I have on today...my coworker said "there goes that baby now" and I was just Embarrassed because I thought I had a few more weeks

    I don't know if this means we'll carry high but I can feel my uterus and then it just rounds out from there...I'm very slim so I just look "odd" today lol

  • idk.  I am 13 w 4d and today I feel like I actually look pregnant versus just bloated.  They say you usually start "showing" at 12 weeks so I guess it is only bigger and rounder from here on out.

  • You can indeed "pop" this early! I am naturally tall and pretty slim, it took me until the mid-end of my 2nd tri to really show with both of my other pregnancies. Ecspecially with my last one I was nearly 7 mos along, This time I started getting a little bump at 12 weeks (currently 13.3). Every pregnancy truly is different, I never thought I would start to show this early but it is what it is I guess... now I just have to deal with the "Is it twins?" comments from the family...great!

    And I have only gained 5 lbs... so its not a food baby lol!!! Maybe some bloat.. I usually don't get to bloated though, but who knows??

  • I'm a bigger girl to begin with, but my tummy is changing shape. It's starting to look more round like a pregnant belly :) I feel absolutely huge!!

    I definetly agree with this, I had bought a cute shirt to wear with leggings, and my DH, was like wow that shirt makes you look like 5 months PG. Crying

    Since his comment I have not wanted to put the shirt back on!

  • omg, me too! i totally "popped" today. a couple people have said, oh now you look pregnant! haha, gee thanks.

    That's funny... I'm the total opposite.  I am DESPERATE to begin looking pregnant; I just look chubby!!!  Then at least I have a reason! 

  • I THOUGHT I wanted to look pregnant because I felt it but wasn't showing and today I was like ooooh does it look pregant or does it look fat? Then a coworker told me I looked like I was still losing weight and I said nope but thanks so maybe it was just a lil melon I swallowed and not a basketball.
