Hello.
I'm 7+5 ( I think) but am noticeably getting bumpy. This is my second pregnancy normally a size 6/8. Only one of my colleagues knows about the pregnancy and after asking her today she did mention that I've got a small but defined round baby bump.
What on earth is going on 🫣🤣

At a guess weaker abdominal muscles. Second showed earlier, I looked about 5 months pregnant at 3 months. Third I got a lot of comments about being ready to pop and twins. It was kind of funny telling people I still had a couple of months to go and definitely only one on board. Now I eat a bit too much and I end up looking a few months pregnant.

Likely bloating to be honest. With my second I have a photo where I'm not even 12 weeks pregnant and my "bump" is enormous, I look about 6 months pregnant. The bloating went away after a while, can't remember when though. You do get an actual bump earlier with each pregnancy though.

I got bloated in early pregnancy and then the actual bump arrived!

At 7 weeks pregnant I had to cut my trousers so they would fit because of bloating!

Bloating is horrendous during pregnancy. Im 7 weeks and i feel so bloated i have to pop the button and zip on my jeans to feel comfort. I started using a bobble around my button so i dont have to button up! By no means am i in sizes 6 - 8 but it still stands that the bloating is giving me a 'bump'

With my second pregnancy I was showing a lot earlier and was in maternity trousers before 12 weeks as the bloating was really bad.

I has twins first and a singleton second. I still looked more pregnant way earlier with my second.
The twin pregnancy did end up with a bigger bump but it was only obvious after 6 months, before that it just looked like any ither other pregnancy. My abs hadn't come back together before my second pregnancy so the bloat and little bump just seemed to pop right out.

It was a bit awkward as I couldn't hide the pregnancy at all

Agree likely bloating. Don't panic when it goes down!
