ahhh can't hide it anymore!!!

MarinsMom · July 2012

im only 11 weeks and 2 days. I'm planning on making the big announcement next Wednesday at the 12-week mark...BUT I'm huge!! none of my clothes fit me and i KNOW people are staring at my stomach. Either they know I'm pregnant or they just think I'm an absolute pig all of the sudden. I'm trying to suck in my stomach but just don't want to anymore!

I cant wait to just scream "I'm pregnant!" and EXHALE!

You're so close! I felt the same way. All I wanted to do was take off my spanx, stop sucking in my gut, and let it all hang out. It was such a relief to tell my office and to start dressing comfortably.

Wednesday will be here soon!!

I feel the same way! I'm so uncomfortable in my clothes, I feel huge. But I did try a pair of maternity pants which were still too big. But I don't want to try and suck in my gut anymore. I wanted to announce it at 12weeks..but waiting till 13 weeks because that's when my ultrasound is....so i have to wait 2more weeks Stick out tongue

I know the feeling. I really popped my 11th week. I can't suck it in...it just hangs out there, lol.

I'm so jealous of all you guys popping at 11 weeks! I'm almost 12 weeks now & can still fit into most of my normal clothes (although a bit snug in some) and since I didn't have a flat tummy to start with, the little bit I've grown is not noticeable at all. :- It's hard not to worry about what the heck is going on in there when I don't look or feel pregnant most of the time.

OP: Looks like we have the same due date...I feel the same way! Today is casual Friday at my office and we are allowed to wear jeans. I am currently keeping them together with a rubber band around the button!

I have slowly started to tell people even though my first u/s isn't until Tuesday. I couldn't take the obvious glances at my tummy anymore!

bstengler · July 2012

Try to hold out a bit longer! Your so close!! Just think how awesome it's gonna be to tell everyone your 12 weeks!!!

OhioLady · July 2012

We started telling all our good friends at 11 weeks, and I finally came out fully earlier this week after 2nd appt

I definitely have a bump now, but it's not really baby, just all my intestines having now where to go any more but up and out! The baby bump down low is starting to show itself, but most of my "pop" is up by my belly button.

dlbrous · July 2012

I'm 14 weeks and it's still not visibly noticeable to co-workers. I wear about half maternity pants and half regular pants. I'm ready to have a bump.

This is pretty much how I am too, but my brother-in-law outted me on FB so now everyone basically knows

i feel so relieved I'm 15 wks and will be having an ultrasound in about 2wks! I cant hold the news in any longer so today I'm deciding to tell everyone like fam&friends!

Marliese · July 2012

I have a bump as well

Its not overeating.. I've lost 9 pounds from morning sickness... its all below my belly button and is big even in the morning before the bloat. By noon though, theres no hiding it. I was sad because I thought I was showing too early, so I feel better there are others in the same boat. I think I might be farther along than I thought, but we'll see at the NT scan Wednesday!

Ktande22 · July 2012

I feel the same way...!!! we're in the midst of telling ppl this week but some still dont know we dont want it out there too much and have ppl blow the surprise esp w/ a stupid fb comment to spread the word but im def. feeling the judgemental stares like I've just gotten lazy!

I didn't have a flat stomach before either. With DD, I really noticed a change around 14 weeks. This time, I've really noticed a difference in the past week.

I'm bummed, I wont be getting an ultrsound at 13 weeks. My dr doesn't do one till 20weeks. So I'm just going to have to announce it after he checks the heartbeat at my 13week appt. We have told close family and our best friends Smile
