FAT!

I'm really bloated or something. I know I'm only 4 weeks but I feel like a cow!

*Raises hand!*
Oh yeah, I've got the bloated going on too. I went and got maternity jeans yesterday 'cuz my pants were getting tight while sitting down. Even after I ate my belly was popping over the maternity pants. It's crazy.

I feel the same way..Had to pull out my size 7's(pre-pregnancy I am a size 3 ) today..I will be in maternity jeans soon though..

My pants are tight, too. The McDonald's lady told me to stop coming.

LivyLove · #5 March 14th, 2010, 04:14 PM

lol I love mcdonalds Hi-C orange. Before I was preggo, I drank non caloric drinks and now the only thing I can think about is that stupid orange sugary delight..

LOL!

Each time I've been pg, I feel bigger sooner. It's like as soon as one drop of progesterone enters my blood I blow up. It doesn't help that I'm up 15 lbs or so already

I feel like I swallowed a basketball already! I'm 5 weeks 5 days and I can't believe it! My jeans are great in the legs and butt, but squeeze the bump! I'll be moving into maternity soon! Hard to believe it's happening so soon!

I feel SO fat! Granted I am overweight already. And I carry my weight in my belly normally.
Today at church a 'well meaning friend' came up to me and asked me if I was feeling ok.

I said 'I'm alright' then she looked at my huge swollen bloated gut and said " Are you pregnant"

I responded with " too early to tell anyone" so she asked how far along , I said 5 weeks
and her response

" 5 weeks of 5 months!!!!!"

UGH!! I bet people were guessing I was prego all day!!!

Oh yeah. I did not feel like this so early with Wes. I am not a big person so I think it is obvious already from my bloated gut that something is going on. I don't know how I will hide it for another month!

benandali · #10 March 14th, 2010, 06:08 PM

aw, I think I would've cried if someone said 5 wks or 5 months

I do feel horribly fat but I still fit into everything. DH was very sweet tonight and as we were coming inside..I was walking in front of him...he was like "you looked really slim tonight"

Made me feel good! Plus the whole time I was feeling super fat because my sweater and jeans were a little tighter than they've been.

Admin-Rachel · #11 March 14th, 2010, 06:34 PM

I'm a little bloated, but I'm not feeling fat.

Servilia · #12 March 14th, 2010, 07:11 PM

I'm bloated too and not used to it. I think I'm hitting the gym for some light workout tomorrow.

LisanAndy · #13 March 15th, 2010, 04:18 AM

I can't wear my regular jeans already!!

choshojo · #14 March 15th, 2010, 05:39 AM

My bloating has subsided a little, but I was right there with you. I've still got all this extra skin from previous pregnancies, so there's so much room for the gas to fill up... I looked like I was about 5 months pregnant for a while and kept fearing that someone was going to ask if I was preggo and then have to tell them, "Yes, but..."

JustJodes · #15 March 15th, 2010, 06:48 AM

I've been feeling a bit bloated but I'm just happy I can still somewhat fit into normal clothes since at 6 weeks with my last, I was in maternity everything: including underwear! But DH makes comments left and right asking if I'm 6 months or something because apparently I look much bigger to him than I think I look. It's hard when you are bloated though since there is nothing you can do and you just feel swollen

mamakelly · #16 March 15th, 2010, 08:29 AM

Ohhh man i feel so heavy and big! I can still fit into my clothes and DH says its all in my head and hes probably right. It doesnt help when my DD (almost 4) woke me up this morning asking if my belly was bigger. Then when I got up she said, "Yep its growing mom!" lol!

tyry · #17 March 15th, 2010, 08:36 AM

I feel much skinner in the am... at night is when the bloat sets in and I feel fat....but I'm ok with that, the bloat will be just temporary!

My skinny jeans are tight in the thighs and butt, my fat jeans fit just perfect

WifeMotherGoddess · #18 March 15th, 2010, 08:56 AM

Add me to the bloat boat. I don't recall being this bloated with my other pregnancies. It is uncomfortable, a happy uncomfortable though.

dancefever · #19 March 15th, 2010, 09:31 AM

I'm right there with you all too. I feel bloated more then anything.... I feel like I'm going to need maternity jeans soon! Squeezing into my other ones isn't very comfortable, haha.
