How can you be showing at 8 weeks

I thought that I wa sshowing at 8 weeks, but I was actually just bloated. lol

My tummy was very big with this pregnancy right from the start, i thought i would show early being my 5th preg but this was ridiculous!!! Turns out i was just bloated and constipated from the pregnancy vitamin tablets i was taking. Once i stopped them my tummy went back to normal, yay!!

GL with everything

I'm huge too! I guess our tummy muscles aren't as strong as they were before bubby no#1 too so it all kind of shows! Mine sticks out but it still realy soft so I can't wait to have my firm baby belly again!
Good luck!

I totally agree with what most have said here lol. I showed nearly straight away this time and have found that I have done it with all but my first pregnancies! So much for hiding it and keeping secrets hey lol.

I used to be big for ages then in the 3rd trimester things evened out and I had an average sized bub each time. This time round I already look like Im about 6 months pg! and Im only 12wks hehe. But all is good, I dont mind being larger for a good reason.

Good luck with it all anyway and congrats that you are already having #2

Cheers Lindy

I wouldn't have thought it was possible to show at 8 weeks - you sure it isn't bloating? I know many women have bloating the first two months and then it pops back in for a month or two.

I'm coming up 26 weeks and there are still a number of people at work who haven't noticed I'm pregnant even though I though I thought I looked pregnant months ago (obviously I didn't).

This is my first pregnancy, but by 11 weeks I am showing. I don't think anyone would guess unless I was wearing a bikini, but my husband loves playing with my belly now. I have heard that 2nd+ pregnancies can show earlier.

I've also read that slim women show earlier than larger women, which makes sense, doesn't it?

I would say some of mine was bloating at 8-9 weeks but my tummy definately stuck out and I would say it must be because my tummy muscles just aren't as strong as they were before I had DD. I really popped out with her at about 15-16 weeks although I was in maternity pants from about 8 weeks as well. It just wasn't as obvious as it is this time.
