April 2016 Moms

Starting to show earlier???

Hi. I am new to all of this. So forgive me if you have seen posts recently from me.

Congrats to all you mama's!!

I am expecting our second child on April 11th. I am about 6 weeks and feel like my belly is starting to grow. Is this possible???

  • This is my second too and I'm definitely way more bloated than I was last time. Congrats!
  • Thanks. SparklePeanut, I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one. I don't get why I'm so bloated.
  • My 2nd too and way more bloated!

  • So weird, it's my 2nd too and I'm way less bloated this time!
  • I agree, I'm more bloated but not "showing" yet.  With DD I didn't have a belly until I was almost 8 months along!! With this one I feel like I'm going to be showing much sooner

    My husband asked me last night if I was getting a bump already and I'm only 7 weeks!! I know you show earlier with your second but 7 weeks still seems way to soon. It's either bloat or there is more than one baby hanging out in there

  • This is my first and at 6.5 weeks I am no longer bikini ready.
  • Definitely bloat for me!
  • More bloated this time, and not just in my belly but in my hands and feet too. Trying to make sure I up my water intake to help minimize it. So weird how different this pregnancy already feels from my 1st!

  • I'm 7 weeks and I thought I was just bloated at first but the last week my stomach is harder and popping out. I look like I did my first pregnancy at 12 weeks. It's crazy.
  • At 5 weeks I'm already having trouble buttoning some of my work pants! I'm more bloated, more gassy, and thinking I'm starting to show a little already. This is not going to help me hide it for as long as I can at work!
  • I am glad to hear this isn't just happening to me- I am having my first and I am at 7 weeks! Soooooo bloated and gassy its crazy. 
  • Yeah I have the same issue. I call it a "blump" because at this point it's definitely just bloat. I found this picture depicting the change in uterus size and thought it pretty interesting! image<img
  • ^Gah that picture!  I was blocking the squished organs feeling and the whole baby being up in my ribs and kicking them from the inside.
  • This is my first but the bloat is ridiculous.  Yesterday I had a crying fit because I just felt so fat and BLEH.  Not cute pregnant fat, just FAT.  Damn hormones.
  • This is my second pregnancy but first child hopefully! Super belly bloat over here! It's uncomfortable sometimes but I guess it gives you a little time to get used to the belly before it comes for real! The first trimester is so unbecoming! Lol

  • This is my first I'm only 5 weeks and there's a lot of bloating and feeling gassy. I wear a lot of pencil skirts for work and it's definetly showing... I'm glad I'm not alone!
