Im only 8+3 weeks pregnant and already im uncomfortable in my normal jeans. This is my 5th baby although my last child was born 13 years ago. I know it isnt baby as its only the size of a kidney bean so why has my stomach already grown so much. I havent eaten any extra in fact probably less because i have felt so sick. Im even thinking of buying maternity jeans already for comform. Everything seems so uncomfortable around my stomach and i cant bare anything around my waist!!

I think it may actually be bloating and fluid retention. I am now almost 16 weeks and I was the same size at about 8 weeks (in fact, I felt bigger)!

My waist is disappearing but I've not put on weight at 10+6. A lot of it was constipation/bloating I think, but also the hormonal rearrangement of an already fairly generous portion of fat!

I think my thighs are thinner tho... I'm telling myself that!
