Did anyone else get MUCH more bloated around 7 weeks?

ConnCottager · September 2010

I seem to have lost my waist over the weekend and I'm waaaay more bloated this week than last.

I'm going to go ahead assume it's normal, but can anyone else commiserate?

I'm not quite 7 weeks but yesterday i was so bloated it was uncomfortable for even the elastic from my pajama pants to touch my lower stomach.. i took a really deep breath and tried to suck my stomach in and it didn't even move... it seems as i get closer to week 7 the bloating becomes more and more.. i don't remember this happening this early during my 1st pregnancy...

I think I started getting more bloat at 6W and a few days, and it's continuing, so I feel ya. A couple of my pairs of pants need to be retired for a bit. Of course, I am not exactly an...um...optimum pooper right now, so that might be contributing. I swear it's like a 4 month bump look alike.

They definitely help since I can no longer button my pants, but I wish they did more to hold in the bloat!!

I already look a few months along because of all of my bloat. People have already been looking a me differently at work even though I am hoping to hide from the majority of my co-workers until next month. None of my pants button anymore, so I am pretty much wearing them all with a be band. At least my legs still look the same, lol.

yep HUGE belly bloat

Lizbethie · September 2010

I just started to feel this way today!!! I feel like I'm starting to look a little pregnant now!

me!

We compared my weekly bump pics at 6 and 7 weeks... and it was definitely a dramatic difference. At 7 weeks it looks like I'm 5 months LOL. Luckily, my relaxed fitted jeans still fit... but i'm starting to pudge out them. Huh?

It seems like this week it's not getting any worse or bigger. But when we take my weekly photo tomorrow, we'll see for sure.

OMG yes! I thought I would out myself!

However, my bloat has since shrunk down to reasonable levels. Now I'm just waiting to pop for real. (I realize I have like a month until I do)

Meee!!! By the end of the day, I am a walking basketball, tummy hard to the touch and it keeps growing daily. Totally a food baby.

iris427 · September 2010

Yep! I look like I've really let myself go LOL

papasandnic · September 2010

I've been bloated so bad for the last week and it just seems to be getting worse. I can't even button my pants. I'm going to have to invest in those belly bands. At this point I'm not sure how long I'm going to be able to hide this from my coworkers!

eawebster · September 2010

Geez, I'm only 5 weeks and I've already had to break out my Bella band... Can't wait to hit 7! I'm hoping I don't out myself at work. I'm hoping to make it to at least the first U/S...
