Only 8 weeks and I have a tiny bump

[laughingduck]

So I was looking in the mirror at my belly thinking how I already look pregnant but it's probably just bloat. I sucked in and everything sucked in except for a very obvious little bump, it looked like I swallowed a softball and it's just sitting there. I pointed it out to my OH and he's all "ya, you've been growing a little bump for the past week already". 8 week seems way too early for this? With my daughter I didn't really get a bump until 5 or 6 months or so. Anyone else? It's kinda freaky, making it feel much more real!

Twins.....? It's normal to pop a little earlier if you've already had children, 8 weeks is quite early but anything is possible I guess! I popped at 12 weeks with my 3rd child.

Haha NO, thankfully! I had a scan already and they just saw the one. Not sure I'd survive twins!

I havent popped in the sense that Im obviously pregnant, but definitely have a tiny bump growing. Im also about 20lb lighter than with my first pregnancy so maybe that makes a difference in how early I will show.

I had the same thing happen with this pregnancy, and it was bloat. When I laid down my stomach flattened out - now when I lay down the bump remains. (I'm also at a lower weight for my height, BMI is 20) It's crazy how you "pop" though so early with later pregnancies!

I can relate. I have a bloat/bump. Can't hide it wearing dresses anymore. I'd post a pic but I feel kinda shy

lol the other day I wasn't sure if I was excited or insulted when a customer had asked me if I was pregnant. I asked her how did she know and she said she knew by looking at my belly! I was 6 weeks 3 days o_0
this is my second pregnancy though so maybe I'm just gonna be big XD

 

[laughingduck]

Wow, 6 weeks and showing! I remember with my daughter I didnt get my first stranger asking if I was pregnant until I was 5.5 months. I was so relieved when I dtarted looking pregnant and not just fat lol.

Kitteh maybe it is just bloat, I dont know! Or maybe just fat from all the food Ive been eating in order to stave off the nausea. I've gained around 4lbs already, ooops.

XD I'm pretty sure it's everything that I've been eating causing me to bloat and pick up weight, but hey! I was like "I'll take it!"

Heyyy, congrats on your pregnancy! I remember you from back in June. When I was 8 weeks, I felt like I had a bump too. It was definitely gas and bloat from progesterone.

 

[laughingduck]

Oh hey fairycat! I remember you too. Im sorry to see you had a loss too, but glad you're back again! Fx we both have sticky beans this time

 

[fairycat]

Thanks laughingduck, I hope so too!!

It's normal to look way more pregnant after your first child, or so I've heard. I'm at 22 weeks and you still can't really tell. I can tell, but to strangers I probably just look fat. Lol I can't wait to pop.

I have super bloat too, though I know from previous pregnancies the bloat never leaves just eventually turns into bump for me

Hey Fairycat! Congrats on your BFP. I remember talking to you when we both were going through our MCs. Glad to see you are in the 1st Tri thread!!

Ive been pregnant several times..bellies got bigger and bigger and sooner with each pregnacy...im about 5 weeks and already look 3 months pregnant :/ thats how I knew I was pregnant....my body is a memory foam...and being naturally tiny and petite doesnt help either because people that know me have been asking if im pregnant. ..hard to hide pregnancy already i had a MC back in May and I dont want anyone knowing until my second tri just in case it happens again
