Hi, I only found out I was pregnant a couple of weeks ago and am nearly 7 weeks but my stomach has bloated so much I'm finding it difficult to do my trousers up. From a side I literally look like I've got a bump already. At the moment I'm living in leggings and baggy jumpers to hide it. I'm finding it a bit difficult to go to the loo (sorry tmi!) but I didn't think it would cause my tummy to swell this much!Has anbody elsde had this? At this rate I'll be in maternity clothes by my first scan!

Hiya, I am pregnant with our 5th baby. I am 24 weeks tomorrow and both my husband and I have agreed I look like 8 months. But I think that's down to having more children. Plus I never had a really flat tummy to begin with.
Some pregnancy bumps are different to others. You could also be quite bloated or just showing quicker and earlier.
But congratulations none the less . All my love for you and your baby

I'm the same! Just 5+1 with my second and my stomach muscles have given way already. It feels like I've had a really hard ab workout. I'm massively bloated. No idea how I'm going to hide it for the next few weeks. I'm already wearing a waist expander to close my jeans with a bump band over the top to hide the massive gap. It's ridiculous.
