Hi i recently found out that i am pregnant with my 3rd baby.
I am only just under 5 weeks pregnant but looking about 5 months!!
Has this happened to any of you ? I haven't told many people that i am pregnant but i worry when i go back to work at the weekend people will notice. Maybe i'm just over thinking... it's just such early days and i didnt want to tell the world yet just incase.

What would you say if people started asking you so early on?
And, is it normal to be showing this early on?

Thanks xx

It’s hormones op. I think it’s the progesterone that makes you bloated. Your digestion etc slows down.
I too am around 5 weeks and noticed yesterday evening the bloating is starting. Totally normal!

It's probably just a food baby

It’s bloat, I’m afraid (baby is probably poppy seed sized). I was bloated for a few weeks at a similar stage, then it went down and I got my baby bump later.

Congratulations!

I got big quickly with my second - was in maternity clothes by 8 weeks because I couldn't get the zip up on any of my normal work dresses. I work with one woman and otherwise all men though so only the woman noticed.

It’ll just be bloating the baby is the size of a poppy seed!

Hi @Kp1693x I’m also pregnant with my 3rd and 7 weeks+4. I’ve looked about 6 months pregnant for the last 2 weeks. I swear I peed on a stick and my body went ah ok we’re doing this again are we and the bloat has been awful😂😂 I haven’t found my bloating calming down but have found that different trousers and tops hold it in better so that it’s disguised more.

Omg, I'm the same.. literally peed on the stick & stomach went boom! Ah the joys of pregnancy. Any of yous EXTREMELY exhausted? I could sleep all day and all night 😴
