i am only 9wks along, and already my belly is showing - not heaps but a little, like you can defiently tell that ive put on weight in my belly area.. i dont eat heaps of bad things - just same as before, if not healthier. i am a small/regular size 8-10, just wondering if anyone else was showing this early? is it normal or am i getting fat too fast?

everybody is different. don't restrict what you eat!!! just be sure to eat healthy, be sure to eat a lot of protein and a lot of fiber and not too many sweets and fats. normal weight gain in the first trimester is 5-8 lbs.

It's normal so dont stress, i had a little bump at 9 weeks aswell. i am now 15 weeks pregnant and i look like im about 6 months pregnant and this is my first pregnancy. Most people i know who have had a bub didnt get a bump till around 4 1/2 months.
We are just lucky we get to show off our baby bumps earlier.
And dont worry about your weight, so far i have put on around 7 and a half kilos (only supposed to have put on about 3 or 4 kilos by now) and it doesnt bother me cause i know that it is keeping my baby healthy so whenever you feel the need to eat just do it. You will have plenty of time to exercise later!
Congrats on your baby!

I looked like I had a belly at 9 weeks too.. Mostly because I was bloated pretty much from the time I missed my first period till i was about 10 weeks I was really bloated...It could be that your bloated, if your constipated it could be a reason. Don't worry to much. If the Dr has any concerns or that your putting on too much weight he/she will tell you.

everyone is different but I didn't show till I was 6 1/2 months and I am a size 3 jeans.
Just relax and enjoy your baby.

it's not fat, but it's not the baby either. it's bloating, which is common during pregocy. consider that your embryo is only 1.5 inches and weighs less than 5 paper clips put together. if you're super skinny, and it's your second or third pregocy, then yeah, i can see if u said that it's the baby showing, but if it's your first, it's probably bloating.

It's normal, don't worry. I put on most of my weight in the first three month, then it slowed down for the next three. I gained 30 lbs total. Don't worry about it.

I showed at 9 weeks with my 2nd though, not my first. But you could be showing, since you're a small size, you could show sooner.

You most likly not showing because of the baby, its still very very tiny, you are prob just bloated or gaining alittle weight. good luck

It's probably just bloating. It's common during pregnancy.

your baby is the size of a pea!
Your uterus is getting larger but pregnant women don't get fat !(unless you totally overeat and use it as an excuse to eat rubbbish)
That annoys me when people say that,I am not fat i have a human being inside me!!
