Will my waist and ribs go back to normal?

[Hedgehead]

10/11 weeks now and it's all happening so quickly. Got a little grapefruit bump already, waist has expanded, ribs have opened out, bra size gone up (not just cup size but round the back, as ribs are opening out.)

Does this all go down when you give birth or will it stay completely expanded?

My ribs went back down straight the way. My waist did eventually, at about 7 months pp. It didn't seem to be related to weight though. Hula hooping and twisty crunches help a bit.

Its funny how your waist thickens really early on, very clever body isn't it?

I'm just 8 weeks and I have completely lost my waist. I hope that I get it back!!
