Hiya.
This is my first pregnancy, but my bump is already huge! I'm starting to worry that I might have more than one in there..... 🤦🏼‍♀️ anyone else have a big bump this early on??
Many thanks!

Mine looked like this at 9 weeks too. I'm 15 weeks now and it still looks like this! And I've definitely only got one in there haha. Enjoy Grin

I remember the early days in my first pregnancy and I felt huge. Its just a lot of water retention and bloating :)

Yeah I had a big bump at around 8/9 weeks and it sort of was bigger then smaller (judging by my clothes). I'm pretty sure it was water retention.

You tend to bloat in early pregnancy before your bump comes through. Baby is currently very low down and is only a couple of cm long!

Ah thank you ladies!! I did think it's just very bloated, and i can't really suck it in but it feels like a balloon! It's expanded so quickly and feels like overeating at Christmas 😂😅 ( even though I don't snack and eat pretty healthily) anyways, thanks for the reassurance!! 😊

I didn't know I was pregnant til I was about 11 weeks, I was a bridesmaid at my sisters wedding at 7 weeks and the bloating was unreal, I was taking wind and bloating tablets by the packetful 🤣 I then went on holiday around 10 weeks and the bloat started going down.

I looked about the same at 7-9 weeks as at 16, from about 20 weeks I then started to get a proper bump

I bloated a lot in my first trimester and looked massive!! Bloating has now calmed down in second trimester and sometimes I look smaller than I did in my first trimester haha
