Baby bump 6+ weeks

[Shannonlou97]

I’m 6 weeks 2 days pregnant with my first baby and I’m starting to get a bump. I though first time mums didn’t start showing till around 16weeks?

Are you not just bloated?
First time baby bumps tend to be 20 weeks+

Its just bloat/fat op.

Congratulations

@bubblebath62636 that’s what I thought bloating before I fell pregnant I only weighted 7stone 1.... had issues with eating but now I’m eating it is probably bloating. Iv very self conscious about my weight and belly.

Please don’t feel self conscious your growing a baby!

Congratulations! It is bloating but it isn't necessarily because you're eating more or putting on weight, and nor is it avoidable - lots of women find the first trimester make them prone to wind (the glamour of pregnancy!) and it makes your stomach stick out. In my first pregnancy I had a really bloated stomach from about weeks 6-12 but then it went back to normal for a few weeks until I started to get a baby bump from about 18 weeks.

Thank you for putting my mind at ease, pregnancy is definitely scaring me haha

I had to buy maternity trousers at 8 weeks

You have a lovely figure op, don't panic. Enjoy your pregnancy and take lots of photos to see the progress!
