Everyone is different, I started to show at about the same time as you, i.e. looking a bit swollen. I've got a proper hard bump now though It's amazing watching it grow
I am just getting to the stage where my clothes feel tight and although my normal clothes still fit, by the end of the day my tummy feels uncomfortable.........don't need maternity clothes but can't find many 'trendy' clothes with elasitcated waists!!!
around week 5 i couldn't button up some of my trousers. i had to go out andbuy a pair of trousers a size up as it felt so incomfortable! i remember thinking it was way too early - which it was! turned out i was just bloated and i was back to normal a couple of weeks later. i still fit into all my clothes, although i have noticed some of them getting a little tighter and more uncomfortable again. this time "for real" i think as i don't feel bloated any more.
can't wait to have a distinctive bump instead of just looking fat!!
I used to bloat and by belly used to come and go, but now its definately becoming a bump, well it jus looks like im getting fat at the mo, which is doing my head in, I wanna proper bump, so I look preg not fat.
My waist starting getting bigger at 8 weeks but today I've woken up with a huge bump. Saw two people I haven't seen for a while who kept asking 'Are you sure you haven't got twins in there?'. Hmmmmm
I put on weight when I came off the pill in Feb...but it had settled down by about May. But I am definately thicker around the waist even at this early stage...
Maybe like some of the others have mentioned its bloating??
