Not sure of dates

[Creative]

Having had a surprise rather than a planned event, I was not sure of my AF dates. I thought back, and looked at my diary (no I never recorded) and tried to work out my LMP. I thought I'd got it right (ish), but somehow I'm really not certain now.
I have three older children 20, 18 and 13 and with all of them I had neat tiny bumps. Infact with a couple of them people assumed when I was 8 months that I was going to have my babies in the summer and it was October!
This time I know I am not the skinny (i'M Slim) thing I was and perhaps with age 43, My muscle tone isn't what it was, but My bump s already bursting out of my trousers. When I lie down it does sink back in. My daughter was one of a pair of twins (had a miscarriage at 7 weeks)
I am just going to have to hang on till my appointment in another 4 weeks to see where I am.

I've been picking up that women who have already given birth show earlier.

Pretty interesting, I wonder why that would be?

And yeah, if I hadn't been TTC, I would have no idea when my last period was. I was always rather flummoxed when they asked you at the doctor's.

"When was your LMP?"
"uhhh... I dunno, I'm supposed to remember?"

Ooo! Maybe you're further along than you think!

Not sure if it's an age thing. I had terrible bloat this time around. We went down to California when I was 7 weeks pregnant and I couldn't button up my clothes!!!... A few weeks later the bloat disappeared normal clothing resumed and a bump then re-appeared at 15 weeks.
It would be exciting if you were further on though, just wanted to post my experience as I have always carried small and upfront too. X
