Ok, sooo Im getting fat and Im not overeacting or being over dramtic!!!! I actucally looked at Motherhood for some clothes and GOT some the sad thing is I easily looked 4-5 months :cry: I dont know what is wrong with me I havent gained any weight.....MAYBE 2lbs MAYBE!!! and I am sticking out like I am really father along then I am....Im only going to be 9wks this Thursday!
I am starting to get sort of depressed about it in alot of ways with our DS I was too excited to start showing even when I had just baby bloat but this is far away from baby bloat I have a belly!
I have heard that this is "normal" after your 1st but really IS this normal:headscratch: do people really start showing early(like as early as I AM!)
Tonight I am planning on walking on the treadmill for a hour and doing some arm exercises I almost feel like I need to do something:blush:

You are totally normal. No worries. I was wearing my maternity clothes soon after I found out I was expecting #2. :hugs:

I'm only 6w4d, roxy, and I put on a skirt this morning and thought I was going to pop the buttons off. The skirt was snug before, but now it's just ridiculous. Of course, this is my fourth, and they do pop out sooner than the first.
*beep...beep....beep* (That's my backup beeper, lol!)

Sorry you feeling that way! This is my 5th and whats weird for me this time is that I am NOT popping out much at all! I was 16 weeks before I started to have to wear maternity clothes but I still wear alot of my regular jogging suits and cotton pants that aren't maternity and they still fit! No one notices I am pregnant this time around and it kind of bums me out! With my boys my belly was out there at like week 10 looking like I was 20 weeks or something! I am now 18 1/2 weeks. People only know I am pregnant when I say something and then they give me this weird look and say "How far along are you?" As if I am lying LOL But I sooooo know what you are going through as I did that with my last 3 but my boys were out there really early compared to my girls. Maybe your having a boy this time! I'd be curious to find out once you know!

I know how you feel. I feel SO disgusting this time around. We have a film premiere to attend next week and I don't look pregnant, I just look fat.
In January when I had my m/c I was my pre-pg weight... then I gained 8lbs after the m/c and conceived again straight away. I think I may have dropped one or two of those so far. But not only am I so bloated, I am 8lbs heavier than I was with #1. 8lbs doesn't sound like a lot, but for me, it pushes me from slightly o/w to... well, fat.

Roxy I feel the exact same way. I have only gained 2 lbs but I feel embarassed too. Mostly for my upcoming Dr.s appt. cause they will know how far along I am and I just feel like a fat lady poking my belly out but I'm not!.
I'm in maternaty clothes too or I just wear my jeans unbuttoned with a longer shirt over and I easily look 5 or 6 months. I'm so afraid to see what I will actually look like at 6 months!
