    Well I'm not bloated anymore. So know way it can be bloat if there is no air in my belly. Lol and I can't suck in because it is sort of hard!

    I saw on the weekly updates that you probably will notice a belly at 10 weeks.  Maybe you got yours at 9!

    I was bloated until about 12 weeks, it looked like a bump but I knew that since the baby was still so small and so far behind the pelvic bone, it was probably bloat. Once that went away, I stayed looking pretty normal, although a bit thicker, until about 2 days ago. I'm 16 weeks tomorrow and just now I'm starting to actually have a small bump.

    For the record, I understand it is not baby showing, but I still love my bump, even if its just bloat.

    And if you think about it, when your in the 3rd tri, its not ALL baby, part of it is bloat, water weight, etc., but you don't see ppl in third tri saying its not all baby, just saying... but I'll get off my hormonal high horse for now.

    Yes, this is my 2nd baby. I was mostly baby in 3rd tri, but there is alot of extra water weight/bloat too when you are full term.

    I am 10 weeks and "showing" early too. My DOCTOR even said i am showing early bc of having a small frame before i got preg. Even if it is bloat i still love it bc it will turn into the actual baby bump. So congrats!!

    @4maddison: 39w4d and you're correct... it isn't all baby. My stomach, which is right below my boobs now puffs out after I eat. But besides that... the belly is all baby. The water retention and "bloat" you speak of is either held throughout the body or nonsense.

    I heard of it described this way once, whether the bump is bloat, your little raspberry, your ute or lunch... its is all there for one reason... a baby. So yes you're abdomen is growing outward... but it could be due to many reasons... all of them are due to a little one being in there.

    And if you're honestly not bloated anymore you're wonder woman. What's your secret?

    I love first tri. OP I'm way far behind you, but all sorts of bloated for various reasons...my bump looks just like yours.  Or maybe I'm just fat, well I am.

    Not that I care, if you're pregnant and you look pregnant, and you're happy...go with it.  If you want to look more pregnant, no one is going to stop you if you want to hit up some maternity stores for some mat shirts.

    -My bloatedness went away when I stopped eating lots of sugars and drinking any form of carbonated drinks:) I mean once in awhile I will feel bloated but overall it is has mostly been gone for 2 weeks now!

    @ washingtonqueen

    Ok sweetie ::eyeroll:: @ full term, you will be ALL baby, you won't experience any distention in your abdomen after the first tri caused by bloating (constipation, gas, etc.) It all magically disappears once your uterus/baby starts "showing."

    Hahahaha, right.... ::smh::

    So as soon as the baby comes out your stomach is flat right since it's ALL baby? Um no, sweetie, nice try though.

    I have to agree with this. At 13 weeks I am showing.  My doctor says because I am under 5 feet tall my uterus is about where it would be at about 5 months on an average size woman.

    Maybe you just gained too much weight....A lot of people are pretty skinny after they have their baby.  Your muscles and organs return to their normal location and, unless you gained too much weight, you look pretty normal before too long.  :)
    AHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    OMG this is adorable and precious. You sweet little thing.

    You are dense aren't you? No, my stomach wasn't flat. My skin and uterus were a tad stretched out. Amazing. Nice try though, sweetie. 

    As of today, 3 weeks postpartum, things are pretty damn close to being back to normal.

    Also, this is you.

    The reason why it isn't flat is because your uterus doesn't shrink all the way. Once you have your baby your uterus goes down to your belly button. Then it usually goes down 1 finger a day... that's why you aren't "flat" afterwards. Also your body has to get rid of all the extra bodly fluids (water, blood), so most of the time you swell up more before you excrete the extra fluids.
