Sorry I know this may seem like a random question but I'm currently pregnant. I won't say how many weeks but I feel like I look massive for how far gone I am.
What would you suspect?

Thank you - a very anxious FTM

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Comparing it to my bump I'd say 8 weeks.

User5827372728 · 15/07/2021 18:49

19 weeks

Chelyanne · 15/07/2021 18:49

@lwmb do you regret asking yet?

Kittyswhiskers · 15/07/2021 18:52

You look like (non pregnant) me after a takeaway Grin

I’d say maybe 18 weeks

MarshmallowsOnToast · 15/07/2021 18:58

Doesn't look dissimilar to when I was a bit over 17 weeks.

I looked like that at 8 weeks.

OP I think some people have been a bit unkind because they were expecting this to be some weird sort of humble brag, like "I'm only 36 weeks, I can't even imagine how big I'm going to be after another whole month!".

FWIW I had a massive spag bol for dinner and my belly is easily that big, and I'm 0 weeks 0 days pregnant x

There's a lot of bloating with your first.

Also bigger bump after eating and in the evenings.

Could be between 6-24 weeks Grin

Congratulations Flowers

And once you're full term, you'll look back at this picture and scoff at your non bump Grin

ItsVousNotMoi · 15/07/2021 19:18

I would say 20 weeks. Looking lovely 😍

Abetes · 15/07/2021 19:22

Eat healthily and enjoy your pregnancy. Everyone reacts differently to being pregnant so try not to compare or worry

Greenrubber · 15/07/2021 19:26

I would say about 13 weeks! I'm on my 2nd pregnancy and was about that at 13 weeks I reckon! I'm 31 now and fucking massive!!!

Newmummyinlockdown · 15/07/2021 19:36

I was around that size at 35 weeks - my first first bump was tiny. Second bump is much bigger - I was around that size at 20 weeks this time. I find it amazing how women’s bodies all grow roughly similar sized babies yet our bumps can vary hugely, regardless of build/weight etc. Congratulations! X

worktrip · 15/07/2021 19:37

18

Guineapiggiesmalls · 15/07/2021 19:41

Some people are being very uncharitable Hmm

Firstly, I think you look great. As for size, for me it always dependent on what time of day it was. I could probably hide a bump until mid-afternoon up to around 15 weeks, but in the evenings I had a visible bump from much earlier than that! I’d guess you are maybe around your dating scan. Try not to be too anxious, all bumps are different.

Footballschmootball · 15/07/2021 19:45

About 16 weeks. Though with my third that was about 8 weeks….

MaMelon · 15/07/2021 19:47

I’d say 18-20 weeks

coffeewithmilk · 15/07/2021 20:24

Thanks everyone. My usual bmi is 23.. I've put on around 6lbs so far but have only managed toast and beige foods recently.
Hopefully it's just a bit of bloat.

Thank you to the people that have been kind.
After the loss of 4 babies last year this is the furthest I've gotten in any pregnancy so obviously every little thing worries me.

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 15/07/2021 20:26

Did you name change fail? Did you say how far along you are? Confused

coffeewithmilk · 15/07/2021 20:31

@MrsPelligrinoPetrichor yeah you did.
Oh well doesn't matter anyway. I'm quite a regular on the pregnancy/infertility forums. Oh well.. my face isn't in the picture so it's fine

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 15/07/2021 20:32

So you didn't say how far along you are ?

coffeewithmilk · 15/07/2021 20:34

@MrsPelligrinoPetrichor sorry I did previously in the post. I'm 11 weeks.. hence so much worry that I look massive considering the baby is only the size of a strawberry 😅

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 15/07/2021 20:37

Perhaps my phone isn't showing all the posts? Confused

Ah well, congratulations Flowers

MaMelon · 15/07/2021 20:41

Don’t worry OP - it’s really hard to see from a photograph. I showed really quickly with my first and by thirty weeks people were asking how many more days I had left ConfusedHe was 7lbs 11oz, so not massive at all. Every bump is different. Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well Smile

You're looking gorgeous @coffeewithmilk 🥰
