I feel SO fat!!

im only 10 weeks but I'm so bloated and I feel so fat! Maybe I'll feel better when I actually have a baby bump! My jeans are already too tight. I gained 6 pounds already so I've tried to back off the carbs. I know it sounds like a lot but my doctor wasn't concerned. Anyone else having a similar experience?

Re: I feel SO fat!!

  • Oh yeah. I'm 9 weeks and feel super bloated. Can't wear most of my old work clothes. I really need to buy some stretchier ones but I haven't had the energy to go shopping.

    10 weeks here, I'm still down 10lbs but also bloated. Actually look preggo BC of the bloat lol. It's just a matter of time before it's actually baby. Wear comfy stretchy pants lol.
  • Lol yup. I'm pretty sure I look pregnant. Like that stage of pregnancy when people aren't sure if you're pregnant or fat. We have all questioned that about other woman in our lives lol
  • 9 weeks and am already super bloated. I've never really been insecure of myself but lately I have felt disgustingly fat. Nothing at all fits.Time to go on a shopping spree here soon! Good luck!
  • I will be 12 weeks tomorrow. I feel fat but I also feel my uterus when I press on my stomach I'm so excited for baby belly! I've gained Around 3 pounds. But I have some new stretch marks on my left love handle so that makes me sad.... stretch marks are genetic so all I can do is apply cocoa butter and cross my fingers. I'm trying not to gain a lot of weight or at least gain slow as possible but it's a struggle. My ms is pretty much gone as I'm on medication to control it so we will see what happens. 6lbs is no big deal! You are fine everyone's body's are different :)

    11 weeks and I'm huge! When I've got on maternity stuff I think I just look pregnant, but still trying to hide it in regular clothes I just look so chubby. Starting to wonder if I've got 2 in there I'm just so big so early! Not sure what people's reactions will be when we announce in a week or two and I'm sporting a 5month size belly :)
  • 11w+2 days and I have gained 8lbs! I bloat all day. Everyday. I never seem to be able to put down food. I eat because I'm bored, I eat when I'm stressed, I eat when I'm emotional about anything, I eat because I'm pregnant (obviously) the only time I really don't eat is when I'm sleeping or driving. I realize I'm still a skinny twig lady/8lbs is nothing...I feel like it's healthy weight, however, The way I eat I don't think is healthy. Eating over everything can't be good. The bloat sucks because it makes me look like I have more of a beer gut rather than a baby bump, but I know it'll pass soon...right? :)

    Yeah, I've been complaining for a week now I can't do my pants up, and yet I still don't look pregnant. I can't wait for that bump either but I have a feeling it's at least a month away! :((
  • I haven't gained any weight yet, but I look so much bigger. I am usually pretty thin, so even my husband pointed out not only my bloat, but my uterus pooch today. My pants no longer fit. Looking forward to actually looking pregnant, for sure!
  • I'm laying on the couch with my belly hanging out complaining to dh that I look so pregnant, wtf, and he says, "bloat?" Boy have I educated him too much haha :x

  • I'm so blessed. My husband still tells me how sexy I am even though I feel like an ogar! I swear I could shave off my long blonde locks and gain 50 pounds and he'd still find me irresistible

    I'm definitely in the stage where people would question if I'm pregnant or not. My bloat is so bad! I'm usually really skinny, so it's super noticeable.

    I'm 8w6d and my clothes have been tight for a solid week. I haven't gained weight yet, but I'm going to run out of clothes to wear real quick! All my "stretchy" clothes are winter clothes. Maybe I will just wear pjs everywhere haha!
  • 11w2d with baby #2 and I'm in my maternity clothes already. I feel so bloated and gross.

    If I remember correctly this feeling goes away during the second trimester. I felt very normal during second tri with my first.

    Hoping that holds true this time too. 29 more weeks of constantly feeling bloated and on the edge of vomiting is miserable!
  • Im 12 weeks and i feel so fat im having trouble finding any thing that fits :( im wondering if i look pregnant or just fat
  • I'm 10 weeks with baby #3 and I am getting down to a few of my regular clothes that fit. The rest just feel so tight and I hate the way clothes squeezing me around the middle feels! I really wear only a few outfits. I wish sweatpants would become a fashionable look...I'd wear them every where ;-) Two more weeks and I am done hiding; then bring on the pregnant lady look!
  • ugh me too! I had finally gotten to a weight that I was really happy with and right now I am starting to feel like I'm letting myself go and I'm getting back to where I was. Granted my uterus is starting to harden and there is a noticeable bump thing happening (I really don't think it's bloat because it's so hard and different) but still........my legs are getting bigger, I feel like my butt is sagging. Love handles......I'm working out of the country all month but I promise you when I am home in August I am signing up for Barre and Yoga. As for now, with my nausea ... I'm just gonna try and do squats and watch my intake. BUT I LOVE PIZZA, or does baby love pizza???? AHHHHH
  • I'm 8wks and the bloat is UNREAL. Maybe the progesterone I'm on is making it worse, but man. I look 4 months prego and just feel like a blob.
