Im 17 weeks, but my stomach is massive

[belfie]

I'm the same, PG with my first and showing waaay early! I even had some friends (at 13 weeks) say, wow, you're so big. When I was explaining that I'd been on reduced activity (no exercise allowed at all) for 6 weeks, one said... oh it's all just fat then!!! Grrrrrrr

I also had a taxi driver (admittedly, probably a fairly ignorant "guesser") at 8 weeks say, Oh so you're pregnant... how far along? 6 months then? I nearly kacked myself laughing (on the inside) then said politely, oh a bit less than that. I didn't have the heart to tell him I was only 8 weeks! I'm in mat. clothes already too (and have been for a while). I must admit, I felt like a real fraud early on, but I'm starting to enjoy it a bit more now. One of my sisters didn't show at all until after 20 weeks with her second! So go figure hey!

I also found it aggravating that I work with a tall slender skinny bean who's PG and looked unfairly elegant for most of her PG! If you look up Pregnancy Calendar on google you'll find some belly "models" with a HUGE range of belly sizes at each week. I've looked there occasionally and it made me feels heaps better

to all
