Anyone else so bloated that they look pg?

[Abylite]

Hello! I went to a Christmas party on Sat and wore a dress...not too fitted or anything, but I was so bloated (and still am all the time) that I look like I have a little pregnancy belly. My one coworker who "knows" noticed and commented. I don't remember being like this with my 2 prev pregnancies. Maybe it's a good sign!!!

I love my baggy flannels right now. So glad I don't have to go anywhere today!!

I've been so bloated I can't fit into anything but sweats and stuff-my jeans are already put away. I'm a big girl anyway, but this is rediculous.

I'm with you! I'm a big girl, but I'm so bloated I am going to pull out my maternity clothes today and get them ready. My DH is amazed. It took quite a while for me to show with my first, but this is really getting comical.

I get really bloated at nighttime, that's when it looks like I have a belly, but I know it's just bloat...

Add me to the bloated and why is it I already look pregnant list!

[fiddledebi]

Yep! Me too!

I was wearing overalls on Friday when delivery men came to bring a lot of big heavy boxes (new cabinets). I apologized for not helping them, and one guy said, "Oh, no, ma'am -- don't worry about it in your condition!"

I'm only EIGHT WEEKS!!!!

*sigh*

Phew! I thought I might be the only pregnant girl with giant gas bubbles in my belly. I'm only 12 weeks, but my pants are already squeezing my distended belly. I've been going to my regular yoga class and every time I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror, I wonder who that girl is wearing my clothes.

I hear you on that snug pants thing--one day my normal jeans fit just fine, and the next day I think, "What?! I need maternity pants already?"

Is there any limit to the amount of simethicone you can take? Any other good, safe gas remedies?

Glad I'm not the only one. I know they say that with each one after #2 you look pg the instant the rabbit dies, but this is ridiculous.... I want nothing more than a healthy, happy baby, but good grief! It doesn't help I'm not supposed to be pg right now {divorce filing is pending}

Nah, I'm just chubby. I've looked pregnant since dd was born! lol

[nancy926]

Me me me! I've already put several pairs of jeans away, and the pants I'm wearing today won't fit in another couple of weeks (maybe even only a week).

It's a combo of pregnancy and not running anymore (because it's um, COLD outside and I can only go about 50 steps before I have to rest), I'm sure. But I'm definitely showing...I tried to "suck it in" last night and my little belly just sat there. Sigh.
