[momma_jenna]

my stomach is so big and im only like 5 weeks. why is it like this! its really hard to hide from people when my stomach is hugeeeeee.

Are you sure your dates are right? Maybe you are super bloated? LOL I don't know...like it's noticeable?? Do you think you just think its big because you aren't used to be being that size? I don't know, hopefully someone has an answer for you, I didn't want to r&r...

 

[Mrsctobe]

most people are bloated at that stage. you know its a bump when it stays the same size all the time

 

[momma_jenna]

yeah i found out a week and a half ago and its gotten so big. and i cant really suck it in or anything. im just confused as why i got bigg and yes its real noticablee...

 

[Mrsctobe]

my belly looked massive too but it would always look bigger after eating. i noticed at 14weeks it stayed the same size all the time x

 

[momma_jenna]

it looks the same even after i eatt. my stomach is really hard on the bottom but you can feel it gettin harder towards the top! and its been this way for a few days now. im just scared im gonna get huge quick..

If you really are 5 weeks it's almost certainly just bloat, constipation, gas, etc. Yes, it can be that bad that it gives you a belly!

I think it's virtually impossible for you to be legitimately showing at 5+5, the baby is VERY tiny at this stage and your uterus has just started growing.

Of course you may be further along than you think. Otherwise, sorry to burst your bubble but it's probably not a baby bump yet and you can thank bloating instead.

 

[Mrsctobe]

nah i wouldnt worry. it wont really be bump yet as baby is the size of a dot at 5 weeks lol. you dont keep growing all the time through pregnancy x

I have been taking belly photos each week and my 5th week belly photo was bigger than my 6th because of massive bloat. I don't care though I am loving this bump even if it is just gas! hahaha

I wouldn't worry just yet. If your not over eating/eating a bunch of junk you will gain weight as needed. My tummy gets really hard at times too but it has gone up and down. It staied out for most of week 5 but as I am getting into week 7 its gone back down some.

twins??

 

[momma_jenna]

damnn i hope its not twins! but yeah i hope you guys are rightt...

 

[armywife11]

twins??

 

[Rickles]

Ahh the bloat - I'm still suffering but the scales don't reflect the size of the bump if you know what I mean, so trying to reassure myself it's not fat x

 

[fidgets mammy]

i too was going to say twins!! could it be possible? do they run in family? mind you, only fraternal (non id run) in familys, identicals just happen. i only know as im pregnant with more than likely identicals. im ten wks and have a belly, but it lessens when i lie down. how are yr symptoms? according to thr "rule book" yr meant to be ill with twins but im not, true its bn totally different to first pregnancy, more tired, nausea, picky about food, everything stinks, and lots of ab pain, but i wouldnt say ive bn ill. i did however wonder whether there could be two but thought-nah, not me. ha ha how wrong!! if you should turn out to have twins, honest when you get over the shock its actually really exciting. mine are high risk so the thought of anything going wrong now is awful. i ahve anearly 5 yr old and he doesnt know yet. not sure how hell take it. particularly if there girls! he wants a bro!

I had the same thing happen to me yesterday and the day before. Giant hard belly that couldn't be sucked in. I think it must have been bloat because it went away today (and because there's no way it could be anything else), but it actually felt like it was stretching my skin. Kind of gnarly. Anyway my guess is that it's normal

 

[Sunshine12]

I had the same thing and Im quite petite. It will be bloat. I was bigger at 9 weeks than I am now because of it. It does go down when you start getting a proper baby bump though which is a relief as its very annoying!!

 

[momma_jenna]

twins arent in any of our families. so i dont know about that i hope nott! but everything makes me sick...i crave food but when i get it i cant eat it. ive been having lower stomach pains, im soo tired all the time, and i feel like im goin to throw up every second of the day! and my "bump" has gotten even bigger i took a picture on the 10th...got bigger by the 13th...now its even bigger on the 16th...

 

[momma_jenna]

annddddd my hormones are sooo baddd!! ill be happy one minute then someone will say something and ill start cryingg for like 10 minutes and i get real mad quick too....to where i wanna fight people. how do i deal with thatt!

I got asked with my first daughter so many times if I was pregnant at around 6 weeks! I kept having to lie and say no, but they stopped asking after about 8 weeks because the bloat went down and I didn't show properly till around 18 weeks xx
