Not sure why

But even though my scales have gone down (and I'm not overweight to begin with), I still looked like I gained five pounds. I have a flat stomach normally, but right now its a little poochie. How can you lose weight and still look bigger? And I'm only about 6 1/2 weeks! So weird!

Hi I read somewhere that during pregnancy we have 40-50% more blood circulating. This could explain what you're experiencing or maybe water retention.

I'm wondering if its maybe my relaxed digestive system?? Makes me feel so frumpy.

Just realized this looks like I think I have a baby bump - I don't! I'm someone who cringes with embarrassment at some of the baby bump photos that get posted in first tri. People, that's not baby, that's Taco Bell.

I just really thinks its crazy how bloated you can look when it seems like nothing is going on yet.

I didnt get that impression. Theres a number of things it could be really! I was told I was showing at 7 weeks but I was thinking it was just bloating x
