  • It's more than likely just bloat. Especially it being your first most people don't show until they are 18-20 weeks along of course there are some who show earlier then others but since the babies are about the size of a ladybug more then likely not baby yet just bloat :) 
  • At 7 weeks your uterus is still wayyyyy down in your pelvis.

    Sounds like a blump.

  • In my experience so far, it's REALLY noticeable to me and absolutely no one else. I did pick up a belly band and some maternity shirts (which I'm currently rocking for date night). I know the bloat is here to stay and I'll start growing a real baby bump in a few weeks, so I might as well get comfortable!

    @angel102015 at 7 weeks you're only experiencing bloat.. your height, weight and what # pregnancy don't have much to do with it.  So I wouldn't go around saying you're already showing IRL..

  • I showed super early with my first. And earlier and earlier with each pregnancy after that. Everyone carries differently. I agree with the others though, it's most likely bloat :-)

    @mommywesley I saw your post and was humm that is interesting.  And then I just happened to be reading in my pregnancy book and it started talking about how you show earlier your second + pregnancies!  I learn something new everyday - and now I will know! Fancy!

    Yes,  bloat.   But,  buy those pants/bottoms early!   This is #2.  I waited last time until I thought I was big enough to need them and I missed out on months of comfort.   Maternity bottoms are the secret no one tells you about.   It's like wearing yoga pants all the time.   So excited.   Isn't that silly?   Lol.

    Your baby is the size of a blueberry and it and your uterus still well below your pelvis as a PP pointed out. It's more likely bloat at this point.

    I've already gained 8lbs of bloat  :s luckily it's all in my midsection so it looks like a bump
  • Totes twins!

    It's a BOY










  • I was definitely showing at 14 weeks with my first. No need to feel you have months to wait to show :smile: Probably not happening yet, but it's normal to be excited for that bump! I second the motion to slip into the maternity bottoms early. I bought maternity cropped leggings and shorts already! rocking them in comfort right now. PS try to find someone in real life to scrutinize your blossoming bump with. They'll actually be watching the changes with you, and won't be making any assumptions. I did my daily "ask the husband if I'm showing" right before I sat down with my laptop. We definitely think I look different, and I don't think it matters if we're right or not as long as we enjoy being excited. (8 weeks 4 days today)
  • I definitely started showing with my first pregnancy at 14-15 weeks. I never toned up my belly after my first one either so I'm expecting to show early this time too.

    I was showing at 12 weeks last time.  But right now it's just bloat. 
  • I'm so bloated, I've been walking around the house with the waist of my pants pulled down to my crotch level so the tightness doesn't hurt me.  My shirts are tight around the belly now.  I caught one of my husbands employees eyeing my belly the other day.  I know it's just bloat but I feel like a boat.

  • Ugh, I tried to go get some shorts today and ended up with ONE stretchy pair and crying in the dressing room. #bloaters guess I'm gonna have to visit the maternity store sooner than I think.
  • I hate blump! :'(
