Anyone showing yet? 2nd timers?

JennJenn613 · November 2011

I can't figure out if I'm starting to show or just fat, lol. We're hoping to reveal on Christmas but that is a LONG way away if the belly is already starting to poke out. I think people will notice if I wear sweatshirts every day for the next four weeks...

I look about 6 months pregnant right now. It has more to do with the fact I am on prednisone than the pregnancy though. Sad

I can say I cannot fit into anything I own now. I can't stop eating! Urgh.

I feel like my belly is starting to poke at just over 6 bweeks. Is that too soon?? I think its the bloat....I feel so uncomfortable.

for me it's just bloating/I was starting to gain weight because I was being lazy and then when I found I was preggo I was like eff it, I'll have that bowl of ice cream LOL

I was wondering what the answer was to this question...I was hoping to at least make it to 12 weeks without having to show. Obviously I am early, but I am not showing...just a little thanksgiving weekend bloat.

Yes. In the morning I look like I did when I was like 10 weeks pregnant with DS. By the evening b/c of the bloat I look like I'm about 14 weeks pregnant.

I feel like I am months pregnant, but its the bloat, the buttons on my jeans are starting to bother me. Thank goodness I wear scrubs for work, they will cover it up

I will be starting my 7th week tomorrow and for the past 5 days I have had a serious gut that doesn't seem to let up! I do not want my staff to know that I am expecting so I will be wearing loose fitting sweater dresses to work until I am ready to reveal to everyone.

Lucky! Yeah, I know it was just bloat a couple of weeks ago but now it's not going away. I know I'm eating too much with Thanksgiving and all... I should try to tone it down this week and see what happens Embarrassed

I also get to wear scrubs for work.. My cherokee size S--DO NOT FIT me anymore.. I have to say though that I had gained a few extra lbs before my BFP due to not working out like I used to or eating as well as I was... I am def. NOT showing.. I have pudge--the chubby extra pudge I really didn't want to have before getting the BFP :-( But it's here---oh well---I am thinking around 14-16 weeks is when I will show and not be able to hide it... I do feel BLOATED though and am in my bigger size jeans....

I've got major bloat that looks like a baby bump. It's not just in my head either. One of my relatives asked my mom on Thanksgiving if I was pregnant because of hte baby bump. Sigh! My mom said no, but obviously she knows the truth.

I've been in maternity pants for 3 weeks now. This is my 4th (but really 5th pregnancy). I look 6 mons pregnant. The good news is this happened with my last two babies as well. However, I look enormous and fluffy right away, but really it stayed about the same from now until 20 weeks.

I think I am having some leftover bloat from my IVF meds. That, and I gained weight during the whole process because my doctor wanted to take it easy and still does, and the whole thing was really stressful so I just ate whatever I wanted. And now with the nausea, I really have to eat whatever appeals to me, which often isn't the best. My pants do not fit as a result, but I wouldn't say I'm showing, just fat.

Have you seen that show Secretly Pregnant? Now I don't know how those ladies pull that off at all. Some of them are like 5+ months along before they tell people and they are still shocked.

I'm super bloated!

hijoi:
People who know tell me that I am showing. I keep telling them it's bloat and to stop being an assshole and calling me fat(ter).

LOL

Im definitely bloated, and the IVF meds I was on certainly aren't helping the situation.

I think I am a little, and I don't think it's bloat cuz it's not going away or fluctuating. I'm pretty thin and baby #1 definitely stretched things out.
And I think I may have an unpopular opinion regarding this in that I think you can say you are showing regardless if your uterus is above your pubic bone or not. It may not be your actual uterus or baby showing, but it is what's pushing everything else up and out of the way!

Ok, I am not thin but I totally agree w/ what you say.. Like where-ever my uterus is---must be pushing things up and out more... I swear I always have what I call a Pooch in my lower abd part---but It's just sticking out more and I can't figure out why----that must be it---My uterus is pushing it up.. Totally agree w/ you!

dragonjm · November 2011

I have a little bloat going on that makes a couple pairs of my jeans uncomfortable but, for the most part, not a big change. I will keep my FX that the bloat stays away!
