Huge at 9 + 4 ??

Hi

Just had to buy size 18 clothes today (US 14) when I am usually 14-16 because all my clothes were getting too tight! I really look bloated up round the waist.

Is this normal and excusable as pregnacy weight or have I just been giving in to my hunger pangs too much?

I would say it is atleast partly your pregnancy. So far, I've lost 5 lbs on the scale, but have gone up a clothing size.

Could be bloating, or too many crisps, or twins?

LOL Im with Sevenldybugs.

Ive got a bit of a tummy at the moment, but mine is all cakes and water.

Mine is HUGE also. Has been. More rounded (and I've lost weight on the scale). Sometimes it's bigger than others- but that's when it's mostly bloat.

Yes my actual weight seems not to have changed much, in fact I have been a little heavier in the past and not had to buy new clothes..

Bought a new wool coat today that has a sixties style to it with a fold over collar neck leading to a single row of large buttons that billows out, it's just the style that it billows out so it looks good anyway, but it's going to be great for a winter of pregnancy too.. I love these extra shopping opportunities. No way DH could claim I didn't need another winter coat.
