belly tightness

in Pregnant after 35
I'm 5w3d and getting quite large. Broke out some maternity pants today.  My belly doesn't feel bloated. It feels tight. I called my REs office and nurse insisted my uterus could not be stretching yet. We transferred 2 embryos so all I can think is multiples. U/s is Friday. Thoughts?

    I don't have any helpful insight, but I wanted to send you good thoughts for Friday. 

    Hormones make a lot of things go a little wacky. I'd probably chalk it up to that for now.

    5w is crazy early for your uterus to bust out of the pelvis.

    Mine started to emerge at 12 weeks last time and my midwife was shocked as it was so early.  (She even sent me for an ultrasound to check for multiples.  There was just one baby...  and a very happy, overachieving uterus.)

    If you are with an RE and you did either IUI or IVF you may be hyper stimulated.

    I'm 6 weeks and mine is doing that, but I really think mine IS due to bloating.  It is still uncomfortable though.

    I had abdominal muscle pain at 4.3. Literally felt like I did a ton of sit ups the day before. The muscle pain stayed like that for a few days. I'm thinking it was hormones? Just guess though. But it was pretty sore
