For those curious about bloat vs showing and hearing anything on a doppler

Here is a chart for fundal height, aka where the top of your uterus is. Obviously this is an estimate and everyone varries a little but overall this is a good guideline.

    Exactly. Between water retention, excess gas and the fact your digestive system has completely slowed to almost nothing you're bound to be bloated but it's not baby for a while yet.

    @kflynn81 I'm a STM and this is my 3rd pregnancy but my bloat is ridiculous. And there's no sucking it in either! Luckily as a SAHM I can get by with looser shirts.

    I gave up even trying to hide with loose shirts. my bloat is insane. people constantly ask if I'm having twins - every pregnancy!

    :(( This is baby #3 for me and I can not believe the belly I have at almost 8weeks! I did not have rock hard abs to begin with mind, but relatively flat (though soft ;). I have to say I'm a bit relieved that bloating like this isn't just happening to me. It's been 7years since my last pregnancy and this one is totally different!
