Anyone going through the same thing?

I stopped progesterone last week at 12 weeks. When I was on them I was so uncomfortable, bloated and constipated. At 8 weeks I literally looked 5 months pregnant. 

Since I've stopped the prog. I don't even look pregnant anymore. I'm 13 weeks and there's not even a little bump. I'm back to my regular clothes. 

It's freaking me out!

Re: My bump is gone *baby ok*

  • Sounds like it was bloat and not a real bump yet. I'm nearly 14 weeks and no real noticeable bump yet, not worried.

  • I wouldn't stress! My first pregnancy I didn't actually show until like 18-20 weeks. 
  • The progesterone definitely causes some crazy bloat.  With my first I didn't take progesterone and barely showed. I am tall and a little on the heavy side and really the only thing that changed until about 30 weeks were the size of my boobs.  
    This time we are trying to hide it until Memorial Day weekend when I will be 14+ weeks and it's getting really difficult.  I'm kind of hoping when I stop the bloat will go far away!  And I won't hate food and feel drunk for a good chunk of the day.

  • I'm with pp's on this one.  It was the bloat.  Your bump will show in a month or a few weeks.  I'm on baby no. 2 and not bump in sight.

  • I'm on baby 3 almost 14 weeks and still in my regular clothes. No bump yet, it will come. 
  • I'm also 13 weeks and don't have a bump until the end of the day (after dinner). When I wake up in the morning, my stomach is still pretty flat. I do notice my pants are too tight for comfort now (hair tie trick still works for me), but if you don't know me, you wouldn't know I'm pregnant. In regular life my stomach was ridiculously flat, so my clothes and I notice a change, but I definitely don't have a "bump" yet. I was actually worried we'd be getting bad news at our NT scan yesterday because my stomach isn't bumping out, but baby was right on track and doing great! :)
