I know some of you are first time mommies and may not be showing yet, but since I am I thought I'd kick off the belly pics thread. The second pic is labeled wrong, it is also from Thursday when I was 5 weeks and 6 days pregnant.

Last year with my boys

7 weeks 3 days

13 w 3 days

No pics yet because it's just bloating and leftover skin from my son... I'll take one soon though for you ladies.

I have nothing to show yet either since my belly randomly deflated yesterday. I doubt it'll be too long until I'm showing though!

Yeah, my leftover skin and stretchmarks are much more obvious than the teeny tiny bump I've got going on. I'm waiting to take pics, too.

[deborahbgkelly]

Granted, the outfit may make things exaggerated, but I'm definitely rounder than I usually am. I'll look forward to seeing your pics in a couple of weeks, ladies.

I am only 5w 3 days and def bloated already and look like I am PG.  This is my 4th so I think my body is just like OK I know what to do.  I have been having round ligament pulling too which I got alot later in other pregnancies.  I'll post a pic later :)

[deborahbgkelly]

It definitely happens earlier with each pregnancy. I got my RLP right away both times. The first time I had twins though. It is true. The body says "Pregnant? I remember this. Boom!"

My son is 8 months and I am currently 4 weeks. My stomach keeps doing this thing where it feels like im pushing it out, but it's doing it on its own. I already get so big I have had many people ask me if I was carrying twins... I'll post pics soon

[deborahbgkelly]

I'll be posting another pic tomorrow. I am pretty sure someone will start guessing in the next week or two based on my size.

Nothing showing yet, but oh, YES! The round ligament pain! I had forgotten what that was like!

Cute bump, Deborah. :) Best wishes to you!

[deborahbgkelly]

Thanks! Even with the bad morning sickness I've experienced this time around, I really do love being pregnant.

What is it? I keep hearing (well, reading) mentions of it, but no one actually bothers to describe it.

[CDsMom1031]

They're pains in your belly. Like a severe stretching feeling. I got out one day my last pregnancy around 22 weeks, and woke up the next day almost double in size!

[deborahbgkelly]

Chispita-It's a sharp pain on one side that comes and goes. I've already had quite a bit.The sites say it's common in the 2nd tri,but I've had it really early both times I've been pregnant.

[nettlesoup]

I've been getting that a lot recently. No wonder I'm already massive.

I have taken a belly pic but more just because its funny how bloated I am! I know it's bloating because in the mornings my belly isn't as big. And, oh I am so glad I'm not the only one getting RLP already! I'm 7w1d

[deborahbgkelly]

I'm 8 weeks today and my RLP started pretty much right away: around 4.5 weeks. Last year it started around 5.5 weeks. Here are my belly pics: I've definitely grown so no wonder I have been cramping all week. I can't find my glasses, so please excuse my funny faces. Bonus: Kitty!

Looking good, deborah! I can't wait till I have something to show for being pregnant but I think it might be a while, the doc said I've got a retroverted uterus.

[deborahbgkelly]

Thanks Dakipode! My uterus is very slightly tilted, but not much. I can't believe I'm that big at only 8 weeks.
