5 weeks pregnant weight gain

Hi everyone!! I don't know what's going on but I've gained weight already affecting my clothes fitting etc. Surely that's nor normal at 5 weeks pregnant. Has anybody else had this?

I had it till about 8 weeks, it was just water retention and bloating:

I reached my pre-menstrual bloat level, and stayed there. So a little chunkier around the middle. But no real weight gain IYSWIM

As other have said, bloating. How’s your diet? Mine was fine at 5 weeks but by 7 weeks I could only stomach salty beige carbs and put on about half a stone in the next few weeks until the nausea lifted. Beware of that!

@chickpea95 is this your first baby?
You seem to always get bigger quicker the more babies you've had.

No this is my 3rd surprise baby.
