Measuring really big?

[Kimmiepie]

HI everyone.

I am only 7 weeks and I look like I am 10 or 11. My belly button is already popping out, and everyone thinks I'm much further along than I am.

This is my 5th pregnancy, but I wouldn't think I'd be *that* big. I have thought about twins...but would it really make me that much bigger at this point considering they'd be so small?

I won't have an u/s until about 18-19 weeks so I won't know for a while. I am going to run it by my midwife the next time I see her, which is in July. She hasn't actually examined me yet as I'm so early.

I guess I'm mostly thinking out loud, but is anyone else really big? I'll try to get a pic up soon so you can see.

It's probably bloating and the fact that your body remembers so well where it's been. ;)

I show crazy early too. I'm 6 weeks and my skirts are tight, I'll be in maternity by next week I'm sure.

I'm 6w1d today and holding my pants together with rubber bands. We have an ultrasound today and as long as everything looks good I will get out the maternity clothes this evening.

This is pregnancy #6 for me with 3 losses. I think our bodies just know what to do and get right on with it. A lot of it is just bloating too, sometimes I look 5 months pregnant and other times I just look a bit pudgy.

Oh, you guys are making me feel much better! I was sure I was further along with irreg cycles and the fact that I LOOK about 4 months pg, but Dr confirmed 6 weeks yesterday. Sigh. I'm not ready for maternity clothes yet 'cause I'm not ready to advertise, so I've got to figure out what to do in the meantime. :o I've got two kiddos already and this is the first time I've had this particular problem. I think I will try to find a few loose shirts this weekend.
Best wishes to everyone!
