anyone put weight on your stomach yet??

[MissGobby]

it seems strange as i am (guessing) between 6-8 weeks pregnant but even OH commented last night that my stomach seems to have grown a bit and im finding my work trousers hard to fasten up now so leave them undone is anyone else like this, and is it normal to be putting weight on my stomach already?!?

haha yep am already havin to use a hairband on me biggest pair of jeans elasticated waists are becoming my best friend

Yes it is normal

There could be lots of reasons:

- Water retension
- Bloating
- Just baby

I was big very early on because I have a long vaginal canal (you know what that means lol!!) and my uterus is all up and out so I'm carrying higher than most and it's a lot more "out" because of the position of it.

Anyway, there are lots of possible explanations but it's exciting when you start to show whatever the reason behind it!! Go get those maternity clothes on gal!! xx

me me me.... I am

I thought I was bloated at first but no matter how much I release that trapped wind it doesn't seem to go down.

I've no been able to keep my jeans fastened all day for a week or so now and I ordered a new maternity skirt the other day and it came last night and it's the most comfortable thing in the world so I've got it on now!!!

I did too hun don't worry, I was out of normal trousers at 8 weeks and had no choice but to buy maternity clothes.

I've got a whole wardrobe of them now! Some of them are SO comfy, others not so

BUT, you're pregnant You're only going to get bigger!! (Which is exciting! )xx

Sooooooooooo much!!!!
I'm only 7 weeks but someone at work who used to be a MW said I look about three months gone!!!!

I was the same and felt I was putting on weight on my belly when i found out at 6 weeks. I found out about belly bands on here and they've been my saviour! Can get them on ebay, in new look and h&m for about a fiver and means you can wear your jeans/trousers for a bit longer.

I was in maternity jeans by 8 weeks but could have been in them at 6 if I had given in. The jeans with the elasticated panel where the pocket is don't even look like maternity jeans so no one would have to know.
