Look pregnant in the morning but I'm not pregnant

This sounds really weird and it's hard to explain so bear with me!

You know when you're pregnant, and in the morning when your bladder is full, your bump is more defined? I had that this morning and I honestly did look pregnant it was very odd. I've recently had a period, on the implant and had negative pregnancy tests, so I'm definitely not pregnant.

Has anyone else had this?

Have you got dc already? I have separated stomach muscles and always look pregnant unless I pull my stomach in!

Maybe this was just your full bladder showing. If the "bump" went down later, it was probably your bladder. If it didn't go down, go along to the doctor and get checked to see if you have any ovarian problems.

April - yes I have a 2 and a half year old but I've never seen my stomach like that before, only when pregnant! It's so strange! May just see if it keeps happening and if it does then I'll go to the doctors

Surely it's just a bit of a bloated tummy? What do you think the doctor will do?

buscaution - I know what it's like to be bloated and it's definitely not that. I dont know I'm not a doctor

YouTube can show you how to check for separated stomach muscles!
Specific exercises are recommended, def not sit ups!
