Huge belly from week 6 pls tell me it balances out

[user1478639495]

So from about week 6 my belly just popped I am now 11 weeks and I am very huge and having to wear extremely baggy clothes as it's quite obvious that I am pregnant. I was hoping to keep it quiet until after scan a little closer to Xmas but there's no chance I'm an elephant!!

This is my third baby, can someone please give me some relief in that this growth will settle down slightly? I already feel like im in week 35/40 last night I was so uncomfortable with bloating and my belly was so big I couldn't do anything but just take myself to bed.
If this carries on at this rate I'm going to be a right state when I get to full term 🙈

Someone give me your experiences of this pls 🙏

Not quite the same as this is my first, but I was very big at the start and had clients at work (who of course I wasn't wanting to share the news with yet!) asking when I'm going on maternity, saying I'm obviously pregnant way before I even had the 12 week scan!! I can't remember exactly when but it was just bloating and it went right down, I did get a bump quite early at 16 weeks but again seemed to go smaller and now I'm 29 weeks and small and everyone says how I don't look very big etc. My neighbor said the other day I've been pregnant forever as she saw me around 7 weeks and guessed I was pregnant and thought I was much further along! She thought I'd had the baby as small bump now haha

It does balance out. Wait for it. All the best OP.

OP for what it’s worth I’m 25 weeks and my belly looked only marginally smaller between 6-12 weeks due to bloating, especially in the evening when it was huge! When nausea/bloating subsided in 2nd trimester, I barely had anything until it suddenly popped out around week 20. But it feels different from the bloated belly. Yours will still change too x

I thought I was much bigger with this pregnancy until about 16 weeks, I think it was mostly bloating though as now I'm 27 weeks I'm actually smaller than last time when I compare photos.
Good luck OP.

Same as others. I definitely popped and showed much earlier with my second but now I’m 18 weeks and I don’t think I’m much bigger than I was at this point with my first.

I was absolutely huge in early pregnancy this time, by the time I was 12 weeks I looked just about ready to pop. I was really concerned that I was going to be massive, but now at 28 weeks I'm a lot smaller than I was at week 12, and am measuring slightly smaller than average.
This is my third baby too btw.
