Hi all,
I'm 13 weeks pregnant but wondered if anyone else has had some big body changes already.
I am overweight and usually a size 12 so I have a little bit of a belly / muffin top normally but since becoming pregnant my whole belly is huge and round i look like I'm about 6 months pregnant. I obviously know baby is probably not even above my belly button yet so just wondering why I'm so rounded. I feel like a huge whale and feeling so insecure. My husband keeps asking to see my bump and im constantly trying to hide my belly because I've just ballooned

Hey,
I’m 14 weeks and everything I’ve read says women can start to show between 12-16 weeks so it is possible that you’re starting to show. At 13 weeks your baby is about the size of a peach and that wasn’t there 13 weeks ago. Also, don’t forget your body is changing such as your uterus has doubled in size! So of course you’ll start to have some rounding. I hold a lot of water so by the end of the day between the bloating and the water I look 6 months but by morning it’s calmed down.
Let your husband see your bump, he will be proud of you for growing your baby ❤️
@Rachael thank you. Maybe hormones but that made me feel so emotional about letting him see the bump. Thank you so much 🥰
