When does the bloating stop? UPDATED chub pic added lol


...or doesn't it? I am so bloated and the skin is all taught as well, it is so stretched. Can't feel the chub because I'm like a balloon! Making it hard to tell if I am getting a bump because my stomach is always so huge compared to where my bump (possibly maybe) is.

Apologies for the pic, you can even see where the bloating stops and the chub starts haha. See what I mean though? (About the bloating not about the chub!!)

IT could be partly chub, same with me when mine eased up I had more of a baby bump and its just grown from there, lol. Keep a personal photo track cuz if you decide to have another baby at some point your see your body stage (everyone differs...) also it may be a good idea to keep a record of big things cuz you can compare it to your other pregnancys.

it's like you can read my mind! I'm only 13 wks 4 days and have this huge bloating bulge, people say they can see i'm pregnant, but they're looking at the bloating and I think my poor little bubba is going to be hidden behind it for ages at this rate. I just want to show that I'm filling out, not have a belly equivalent to a much more pregnant woman! Had to buy maternity jeans as it was getting so uncomfortable. Anyone know if this is likely to ease up?

I'm little over ten weeks and the bloat is getting me down. I look about 18 weeks pregnant! My friend is 12 weeks with her 2nd child, and she has a very pronounced but firm bump in place. Her midwife said you always show weeks ahead after your first.

My actual stomach (inside my tummy) feels higher too, so after eating anything heavy like pasta, bread or potato I can feel it settling quite high up and making my tummy bloat :-/ anyone else get this? X

I'm only 5 weeks and I'm shocked at how big my tummy looks. I have caught a couple of my work colleagues looking at it and probably thinking that I have been bingeing on cakes or something! I used to be fairly slim and my work outfits are quite fitted so it really shows.

I was hoping to keep it a secret at work for a while as I don't know how they will react to it (nearly every woman in our department is either on maternity leave or is just back from ML but working part time - has not gone down too well with the (male) bosses). However at this rate I am going to need maternity wear before I even get to my first scan!

It's not just tummy either, like the poster says above, my upper stomach also seems to have grown - huh???
