I know this is the smallest thing to be worried about throughout your pregnancy but I am just wanting to know how others are dealing with the same issue.
I am 11 weeks tomorrow and I would say I look as though I am about 6 months pregnant, although when I weigh myself i actually haven't put on any weight. I am 5'5 and 9 stone 12 which is the heaviest I have ever been but I literally feel like a whale. I have never been 'toned' but as soon as i fount out I was pregnant I have had a little pop belly. Last week my stomach has just gone HUGE and I mean huge, its started from underneath my boobs and is rock solid. Obviously I know its just bloat as the baby is the size of a pea but it is getting really noticeable and harder to hide. I showed a photo of my stomach to one of my boyfriends friends who is a nurse and her words were 'yeah, you are just fat!!' which i was mortified about but this is what I think everyone else is thinking! I know it sounds really really self centred and I know I am going to get huge but I am just wondering how everyone is dealing with their body changing so much :)

I had this at 10 weeks and bought maternity jeans. Then (TMI alert) last weekend (11 weeks), I did three huge farts and it really reduced!!

I'm feeling massive too!! 10 weeks tomorrow. Like you it seems to be all bloating but I keep weighing myself and have put on more than I expected at this early stage! I'm naturally quite petite and it's a bit of a shock. I don't know what the answer is but I'm sure I'll feel more comfortable about it when it's actually the baby making me huge!

God I was totally like this at your stage! I was in the queue at a shop over Xmas and the lady at the till shouted out “your pregnant you don’t have to queue”. I was only 8 weeks- mortified! I’m now 25 weeks and it has turned into obvious baby bump which feels nice but I’m still bigger than I should be! It will be worth it I’m sure Grin
