For the record, I never said it was a BUMP! I called it bloat myself if you see above!
I've seen that chart, you didn't need to share! Remember I'm a STM not a FTM!
I think it was just unclear, as when folks say "I'm showing" they're talking about their bump, not being bloated.
ETA - Also, you said "Any other STMs showing a lot sooner that last time?"

You said you were showing and asked if anyone else was. Bloat =/= showing. Lots of women who aren't pregnant get bloated.

Unfortunately, people can just be rude. I've been asked if I was pregnant because I stayed home sick for a day (before I was pregnant and when I was about 20 pounds lighter). Or because I declined a second drink at a party. Or because I put on a little weight.

Wow, some people are rude huh?! Isn't this a place for people to show support for other woman that are going through a similar experience?!? Who cares whether it's bloat or not.

I'm very supportive of anyone who's like "some asshole at my gym asked me if I was pregnant even though I'm only 7 weeks, isn't that rude?"
Yes. Yes it is rude. Asking someone you don't know intimately if they're pregnant or planning/trying to become pregnant is almost always rude. I'm sorry someone was rude to the OP because she was bloated.

See but the point is you aren't "showing" in the sense that you're pregnant bump is visible. Bloat isn't bump. It could have just as easily been period bloat (or too much soda bloat) and then you would be offended the person at the gym basically called you fat.
Can we please just stop with the bump talk! More than likely no one here will start to show even a little until 16 weeks, with the exception of multi mommas. Anyone who asks you if you are pregnant is an asshole, because they are assuming you are either KU or fat and don't care if they make people feel bad if you are just fat.

Yeah, I went BSC at DH when he touched my bloat a week ago and said 'you can really tell you're pregnant!' - f you DH for just calling me fat! If a stranger had done that I would have lost my shit.
Ok wait. You started a thread saying " I guess I'm showing!", but then back track and say it's just bloat when people respond honestly? So really you started a whole thread about bloating which should just go under the symptoms thread as something like "guise I'm so bloated". This did not need it's own post because you're obviously not showing at 7 weeks (maybe not so obvious to some).
Wow, some people are rude huh?! Isn't this a place for people to show support for other woman that are going through a similar experience?!? Who cares whether it's bloat or not.
I could not agree more, I keep coming across super rude women in these threads, kinda surprises me.
I've been in and out of forums for over a decade and yeah, I've never seen the "why are you so ______, can't you be nicer?" argument end in users changing their personalities to suit the new poster. If you don't enjoy the environment of a given board, it's best to find one that suits you better. This is actual advice. I'm not being a smartass.

It's obvious people were born to be down right bitches for no reason. Showing or not, who gives a damn! We will all carry our babies differently! This is suppose to be a happy time....and because there are a bunch of miserable mums out there....you have to go and be negative on someone's blog. Like the saying goes, if you don't have anything nice to say keep it to your damn self. If someone feels like they are showing at TWO weeks let them feel that way!!!! Again this is a very exciting time in life. So shut the hell up!

I completely agree although I didn't quite have the "balls" to say it so directly ha ha. Nice girls for the win.

You just violated TOU.
And if calling women bitches makes you a "nice girl" you need to reevaluate.

I wouldn't have gotten asked if I was pregnant! Right??
My Chart
1) Its too soon for this shit.
2) If you are 7 weeks, you are on the wrong board. You're due in August.
I have a feeling this thread was meant to create a little drama.
