Is anyone else so bloated that they look about 4/5 months pregnant?!

Hi Ladies,

I'm getting very concerned that my stomach is looking HUGE at the minute - I think it must all be bloat but I now have two pairs of jeans that don't fit and my stomach looks like a beach ball!

It's surely too early for me to be showing so do you think it could just be bloat? Is this normal?!

Lol, yes! I am sitting here with the button undone on my trousers and my belly hanging out. Its bloating I guess. But at night time my OH just looks and puts the duvet over his head in a comedy way saying "its twins!".

This isn't the first time I've been pregnant. Im thinking its because my tummy has been stretched once before so is a bit more susceptible to bloating. I didn't show at all until way after 14 weeks IIRC the last time.

Ha ha - yep, my belly is massive. We visited our 2 year old nephew the other night, and he came over to me and prodded my tummy and laughed!!!

i was hugely bloated between 6 & 8 weeks, it was uncomortable!
i actually bought a pair of maternity trousers at 6 weeks and they are sooo comfy!

im so glad im not the only one, although i really feel like im starting to show now, is this normal at 13/14 weeks? When i was 6/8 weeks i felt huge, i felt like it looked like i really needed to fart or something hahahah

I've looked like I'm 6 months gone since the test turned positive. I am actually in under the bump maternity jeans now as I can't stand anything restrictive on my tummy and they are sooooo comfy! Thing is I am normally a size 8 with a flat tummy and we arent telling anyone till 12 week scan so its difficult to conceal, as well as a little depressing that I look so big already but it is my third! xxxx

Thank god, I thought it was just me as the fat heffer! I am having to wear my tights under my belly now and my hips look like they have doubled. Which is why I am convinced I am having a girl. People will definitely be talking before my 12week scan!

Hee hee nope I am a heffer too! Its hard to feel sexy when my bum is as big as a space-hopper and my belly is catching it up! xxxx

This is my 3rd pregnancy although only have ds, but I am so bloated its horrible! I change into jogging bottoms as soon as Im in the privacy of my own home! I also went shopping and got what I thought were baggy tshirts to layer up - but nope - they arent baggy when Im so bloated! Roll on when I tell everyone and can get out the maternity clothes!
