5 weeks and showing - this is ridiculous. Twins?!

[Runningupthathill82]

Okay, so I'm only 5 1/2 weeks pregnant with DC2 but I already have a visible rounded tum.

Two weeks ago I had a flat, muscular tummy, and now I'm a proper porker. Seriously, I look like I did when I was four months pregnant with DS.

So. Am I eating too much cake, or is this an early sign of twins?! Help!

Don't panic. It's more likely to be bloating.

You're bloated.

Drink more water

Congratulations!

I am into my 5th week and also suddenly grew a big bump of bloatedness. Tinned prunes was the answer, just 4 with some yoghurt for pudding. Next day all was cured! I now have my normal figure back (until I show for real!!!)

'Tis bloat. I'm wearing maternity jeans at 8 weeks due to the dreaded bloat . Was the same with DS though, instantly looked 5 months pg, then just stayed static for ages.

Sorry its bloat. I had the same been in maternity clothes a month at 9 weeks. It's only one baby in there but I too was convinced my bloat bump must be twins. Then again, someone has to have twins, why not you?

I hope it is just bloat!
Not sure if I could cope with twins, when I have an unstoppable destruction-machine of a toddler already to deal with. But then I guess it would make life interesting....!
