11 weeks pregnant already have to wear maternity pants and in allot of pain

[iwanttobeamumm]

My stomach muscles hurt so bad I can barely walk I'm huge for only eleven weeks and I'm really concerned about what is going on with my body I never had this problem with my first I'm also getting really bad cramps and I'm panicking that something is wrong with my baby has anyone else had this? What happened? I'm waiting for the doctors to ring me back

I'd contact epu if you can huge already as well for only 9 weeks. Hope you get the reassurance xxx

Hey... I was in maternity pants by 10 wks, just because everything else felt so uncomfortable and I was so bulging I couldn't do things up! It's my first and I was convinced for a while that it was twins, but got a lot of reassurance from the 12 wks scan. Are you having that soon?
Are you a slim build? The midwife reckoned that's why I was so noticeably big and thought that I was maybe retaining a lot of fluid.
Of course, if you're concerned and in a lot of pain do seek proper advice and help from an epu!

Did you have a C section with your first, or do you think your stomach muscles were damaged with the last pregnancy?

You do show earlier with subsequent pregnancies because your stomach muscles aren't (usually) as toned so can't hold everything in.

I'm 10 weeks and can barely fasten my jeans now that 10 weeks ago were loose around the middle. I have some maternity jeans already but one lot are "under bump" and they need pulling up all the time as they slip down, I haven't taken the tags off the rest of the maternity stuff because my mum doesn't know I'm pregnant yet and I don't want her to find out because she spotted me wearing maternity jeans lol.

Most of the time now I'm wearing my old jeans that are a size bigger, or wearing my stretchy jeggings or jogging bottoms.

Not sure about the cramps though, I haven't had any for a while now.

However, I do feel bloated and get wind pain quite often.

Maybe you could speak to the midwife or your EPAU and hopefully they can reassure you x

this is me upto last week I saw a friend Monday and then again today and she said I'm noticeably bigger I went to the doctor today who has given me a large prescription for codeine because my muscles are pulled and some possibly ripped because I've got so big so quickly I'm not aloud to lift anything not even my daughter even with the codeine I'm.in pain but it's better the doctor asked me if there was twins in the family and said that it's easy to overlook something on a scan as early as six weeks although I think it's just one I had allot of fluid with my daughter so it's probably that just don't enjoy the pain

Wow look at you. What a difference.
Do you think it could be twins? xx

I dont think even twins would be making such a big difference at 10 weeks. It seems like rather than the size of your uterus it is more likely your bodys reaction to the pregnancy hormones. They cause muscles and ligements to loosen, our body to put on weight differently, and of course bloat from slower digestion. My body changed shape almost as soon as I got my BFP my last pregnancy.

That's an impressive bump! Incredible. Our bodies are weird. I'm on my second and I'm 10 weeks but no bump yet. I'm thickening at the waist but don't look all that different, clothes are just a bit tighter. I hope the muscle pain eases xx

Wow I can't believe you've got that much of a bump at 10 weeks that's madness!!! I reckon more like triplets! Xx

 

[iwanttobeamumm]

Haha don't say that haha got my scan on the 22nd when I'll be just over thirteen weeks x will find out then

 

[flexilexi394]

Well good luck for then!! Xxx
