Please tell me I'm not the only one who is this big

I know you're bigger with your second (or third) pregnancies, but I feel SO big for 9.5w. Please tell me someone else looks like this too (please ignore the look on my face, I'm flabbergasted by the size of my belly)

    I'm right there with you, but don't look quite as adorable as you. I just look like I'm a beer drinker.

    I feel like I look about the same as you, but I'm not as far along. I still can't believe that I'm already starting to show and I didn't start to show with DD until 18-19wks.

    LOL! I was in maternity clothes 2 days after POAS. I figured why try and stuff my belly into pants that don't fit when I have stuff that is comfortable?

    I am not as far along as you but that is exactly how my belly looks too. I had a belly before I was pregnant but wow it is so round now. I think it is so strange that it is the top of the belly that bloats out first, that isnt even where the baby is.

    Want to get out maternity clothes but dont want anyone to see it before I am ready to tell.

    your so thin though, your bound to show sooner than someone who is normal/a little overweight.  I think you look great.  Right now I just look like im chunky!  It sucks.

    I <3 you, thank you :) Believe me, I'm definitely a normal size, for some reason I just pop super early. I'm glad I'm not the only one though - I feel HUGE!

    This is second pregnancy but second baby and I look about that big  (except I'm about 10 lbs overweight).  Thankfully, I'm over the is she pregnant or just needs to commit a bit more time at the gym.

    I am right there with you. This is my second pregnancy and I am showing way earlier than the first time, I didnt start showing till about 15 weeks before.  My belly was not completely flat to begin with, left over from my DS, but I think the switch to maternity clothes in order for this week.  I am showing so much this time that I have already had to tell people and I was hoping to wait a little longer, but not such luck.  When I went to the doctor two weeks ago she told me that I would start showing ealier my second time, plus I have a uterus that tilts forward so that plays into it also.  It does make me more comfortable to see that others are showing too, I was wondering if it was my imagination that my belly was growing already.

    You look great if I may say so!

    Nope, you're not the only one! I just went shopping today for clothes because none of my old one fit anymore. I am shocked at how quickly my tummy popped out this time.

    You look so cute!

    I've had days where I look like that. Mine's all bloat so it comes and goes. But, at 10 weeks, I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to be able to get by without being obvious. I'm definitely showing earlier with #2.

    I looked like I did at 15w with Bryce at 8w with this pregnancy.  I've been in maternity clothes since then.  Granted, I am overweight and have a bit of a belly right now anyway, but DH has been all over my stomach and he swears that the bottom part is super firm.  

    I'm just going with it.  I am pregnant so if something thinks I am I won't be that offended!  Big Smile

    I am not quite as big as you, but this is my 1st, so I feel like I shouldn't be showing at ALL.

    DH and I can totally see a bump, and it's starting to feel hard (not just bloat like before). I am 10 lbs over-weight, so I had a little buldge before, but it's definitely getting pushed out more my my growing ute. I also have a short torso, so I'm thinking that might have something to do with it too.

    I'm actually pretty obsessed with looking at it in the mirror, if you want to know the truth :)

    Adorable bump and hilarious look on your face.  All around cuteness!

    Yeah I think I could be that big too.  To make things more shocking for myself, I managed to lose a bunch of weight between number 1 and this one; it took months before I stook out like this with my son!

    I'm in the same boat my bump for 9 weeks is in my siggy. I had a flat stomach at one point but it quickly left for vacation soon after finding out baby was coming.
