Hi Everyone,
Has anyone experience severe bloating at 8 weeks? It looks like I'm well along becuase it's so swollen, even though I know it can't be the baby.
I've had to start wearing maternity wear, beucase otherwise its too noticable and uncomfortable.
I've already started wearing maternity bras due to the sore and growing boobs.
I dont get to see my Obstetritian till 10 weeks so I still have a few weeks to go :(
Is this normal? My husband keeps teasing me telling me its twins O.o
Thanks :)

Embrace it hun! I bet you have a beautiful, warm glow right about now
It may feel horrible, but at least you're showing! I never showed til I was well over 20 weeks!
i suffered badly from bloating, get some degas from the supermarket or chemist, its a life saver!
Yes i was very bloated, i was bloated from 6 weeks so there was no chance of hiding it from anyone. By 12 weeks i had a defined belly bump. BUT by 15 weeks the bloating went away and i had nothing! LOL i worried but then i popped at 18 weeks and then just got bigger and bigger.
Im only just ahead of you - and Im the same! I look huge!!
And feel it, clothes are sooooo uncomfy!
I hope you feel better soon! Congrats on your pregnancy :)
Thanks for all the replies, it makes me feel alittle better.
I can't tell anyone at work just yet so I must look strange suddenly changing to very baggy clothes and stretchy wasted skirts (as I seem to have a heat aversion as well)
Sneaky, I got some skirts at Kmart, they aren't maternity ones but they are stretch, with a stretchy waist band. I can't live without them now!
Severe bloating here too! Right up until I had a decent bump, around 18 weeks!
yep, me too. Looked about 18 weeks at 6 weeks! But then i didn't really grow any more in the belly area until now, so that made it a little better! Couldn't stand waist bands etc from early on, made it impossible not to tell people and i'm not one to keep it a secret either lol Look perfectly "normal" now, tho we did wonder about twins too!
