Or am I just fat? I really do seem to be showing today and I'm trying to keep it under wraps for a while. Argghh!

I'm just over 8 weeks and I have a bump. Apparently it's mainly bloat

Mylittlepuds · 16/09/2012 16:48

It's embarrassing! I look about five months gone!

I had this and it went down again, must have been bloat & fluid.

Mylittlepuds · 16/09/2012 16:54

I wish it'd go - I look proud and pregnant at the moment and people are going to be whispering!

Mylittlepuds · 16/09/2012 17:07

Yep, I'm 11+4 and there is no hiding it now. I found a picture of me at 18 weeks in my first pregnancy and you can hardly see anything.

Marmiteisyummy · 16/09/2012 18:25

Me too! 10+6 and put maternity trousers on for the first time today, heaven! Sure I really didn't get this much of a bump for ages with DS. Glad lots of people feel the same way, was starting to worry it might be twins!!

I was bigger at 8 weeks than I am at 16. It was all bloat.

Photos are 2D so really deceptive. I wouldn't look even remotely pregnant in a photo taken at the right angle, but in RL it is definitely noticeable.

I'm just over 8 weeks and have been thinking the same thing! I really look pregnant. Christ, if I carry on at this rate I'm going to be MASSIVE!

DeathMetalMum · 16/09/2012 19:07

I am the same, was releaved at the scan when the sonographer said we will just make sure there is just one and there was.
I was wearing Mat trousers from around 10 weeks too couldn't fasten anything else. I am 14 weeks now and just seem to be getting bigger. We had to tell people a little earlier than we had planned as I was paranoid people were going to guess. Its my second too I thought that bumps were supposed to be smaller second time around due to everything alredy being squashed once?

My bump was there from 8 weeks (DC3) but has not got bigger, am now 13. Think as has been said, was mainly bloat!

carve133 · 16/09/2012 20:35

Same here. I didn't really look obviously pregnant until past 20 weeks with DS. This time around our eagle-eyed secretary at work guessed about 10ish weeks, and now at 18 weeks I feel huge. I'm sure I'm about the same as I was at 24 weeks last time!

PrimaBallerina · 17/09/2012 08:47

Much bigger sooner second time round here too. Stomach muscles obviously much weaker than they were last time.
