I am rapidly spreading at an alarming rate. My waist has disappeared, my stomach is expanding. My boobs I can only describe as rockets. Only a few clothes fit me, is this normal? I feel maternity clothes my be coming sooner than later?

Any one else had this or am I just odd.

Hi there, go to an EPU near you for an early scan. You might be having more than one baby growing inside you... I'm 13 weeks with twins and I started showing around 10-11 weeks. Watch what you're eating though. You should not eat more than usual so early in pregnancy. Avoid sugary drinks/snaks and fat.
Eat your carbs, proteins (very important now when your placenta is forming) and fruits and vegs.
Good luck!

This is my third pgncy but have never got past 17 weeks yet. So that may have something to do with it, but it really is quiet alarming. I did think is it twins? but I am not half as sick as I was with the other babies (yet) and aren't you ment to be really sick with twins.

Have spoken to Doctor who just said think of it as a good sign and all your hormones taking hold, never offered me a scan.

Have not put on any weight just getting bigger, noticably!!

I think you should go to the early pregnancy unit and insist on a scan. Self referals are ok so you don't need to see your GP beforehand. I'm not very sick either, I only puked once in the first trimester. I felt some nausea every now and then but it was not too bad.
