Could be bloating hun. I only started noticing changes in my tummy in week 10 and even started wearing maternity clothes.

Hi

I have had the same problem for the past 3 wks. Even though i have lost a stone over the past 4 wks due to being sick and not being able to eat my stomach seems huge and i thought it was fat but i cant be. As i have never been over weight even before i lost a stone.

I think its a mixture of constipation and water retention.

My mum was patting it yesterday saying how cute my lil baby bulge was

It's just bloating sweetie.

If you're anything like me you're going to wake up one of these mornings, look down and think "Holy cow! Where the heck did that come from?"

I had a falt tummy one day and the next it just swelled up LOL it would be exciting if it was the baby but alas. Just water retention.

I've heard that a lot of women feel bloated in the first trimester.

Bloating for sure!! It is a natural process that happens at the start of pregnancy hun and makes you feel bloated! x

I'm sure it's bloating! When I was preggo, I had some horrendous bloating despite eating healthy and exercising. It's definitely bloating if it gets smaller after a trip to the bathroom.

My guess would be that you're just bloated. My first trimester I was bloated almost every day. Keep up the good work of eating healthy and excercising. I'm trying to ease my way back into that lifestyle now that I feel better.
