weight gain

hi ladies...how far along were you when you started to feel "thicker" in the stomach? i'm over 8 weeks now and wonder if this is bc i'm eating more and working out less or if it's the baby.  thanks!

Re: weight gain

  • I am DEFINITELY really round in the stomach already. Of course, I've got 2 babies growing, but I definitely had a little bump (not just bloat) by the middle of my 7th week.
  • I've had a belly going on for 2 weeks now, but this is also my 4th kid...lol!

  • Well I was growing due to bloat and it was enough for DH to comment on it but it's back down now and I've lost a couple of pounds.  Probably because I was sick with a cold and wasn't eating a lot so I'm sure the bloat will be back soon enough.  Until them I'm enjoying my jeans again (I couldn't even button them earlier in the week).

  • I'm looking really big, especially right before bed, but it is all bloat. Baby is the size of an olive right now, your ovary might be the size of a small orange.

    You could be gaining weight from eating, but also your blood flow increases and you might be drinking more water to contribute to your weight gain.

  • I haven't gained anything yet, but I feel a bit pudgier in the belly. I never thought it could simply be drinking more water... I swear I'm burning extra calories by blazing a trail to the bathroom every 10 minutes. :)

  • I've lost five pounds, but my waist is about an inch thicker. I'm sure it's bloat, but its noticeable to me and dh. Though someone told me I looked "smokin'" yesterday so I'm assuming no one else can tell, lol.
