I did when I was 5-12 weeks, and still today sometimes I feel bloated, and sometimes my belly gets hard, so it feels more natural. I know you are ranting, and rant ahead, cause being bloated and looking 6 months pregnant when you're trying to be discreet is not a pretty thing.

Hi its fairly common that you will be bloated as your body is trying to adjust to becoming pregnant.
Try drinking steeped for at least 5 minutes onwards peppermint or ginger tea. It will help with the bloated feeling.
Also try to avoid dairy products (keep taking suppliments for baby). Dairy is a strong irritant so its possible it can help u stay/feel bloated.

I grew out of my pants at 6 weeks, even my fat pants. Eventually the bloating will subside and you may be able to wear your regular clothes again before your stomach "pops" Invest in a Bella Band for now because maternity clothes will fall off of you still.

Yes, I did with my first one. By six weeks, I had gained 6 pounds! I stayed the same size until I was past three months along.

Are you eating more, now that you know you are pregnant? I've been pregnant numerous times, and no - your pants don't get tight at 5 weeks...if fact, most women lose some weight in the first 12 weeks, due to morning sickness and appetite changes...You may just be bloated...you should not be getting "bigger" already...if so, you're in trouble :)

Yes I did, it's normal. I have never been so bloated in my life. It might get better and might not. I couldn't button my pants after 8wks even though I had lost weight.

WELCOME to pregnancy!
Yes, I had the same thing.
You have to realize, your insides are having to rearrange and make room for the growth and it causes the intestines to get "cranky" and gassy. They aren't used to being moved to new positions!
It will start feeling better soon...and then there will be other changes!
Enjoy everything! Keep a journal...you'll laugh later as you share this!
Good luck and congratulations!
