I've only 6 weeks pregnant but my stomach is so big already. I have been absolutely starving for the last few weeks and have definitely been eating for 2 but I hadn't expected to be able to show already? I'm worried my friends and family are going to be able to guess before I've had a scan... arh. Is there anyone else whose stomach exploded overnight???

Is this your first? When I was pregnant with my 2nd and 3rd I showed earlier than my first. Pretty sure I started showin at the moment of conception with DS3 actually.

Yes, this is my first. So many of my friends didn't start showing till 9/10 weeks so now I've talked myself into thinking I'm having twins or triplets and driving my DH stir crazy!

Is there a history of twins in your family? Might be a possibility. I loved my first pregnancy, watching my bump grow, there were definitely times when it just seemed to shoot out a bit more, can't remember it being so early though.

OP, don't worry yourself. Are you sure you're not just being overly hard on yourself? If you're small framed naturally, you will show earlier than a larger lady. You might be having twins I suppose, but when my friend had twins, she had shocking morning sickness. Actually shocking as in she came out weighing less than she went in!

I am 7 weeks and in the afternoons/evenings (before the sickness starts, yay) feel quite bloated and stomach looks bigger. However after a night of little sleep nausea and vomiting it is usually much flatter
You aren't the only one...

Hi
I'm 7wks, haven't put on any weight, but my trousers are much tighter, think some of it is down to being more bloated. Boobs have also got bigger too.

You probably notice it more than others will
