Bloated or "Showing"???...I'm confused.

I'm only 6 weeks along and I'm already wearing my first bella-band. Crazy!! I'm guessing that my bloating from stims got worse after my BFP, but I'm not sure.

This is my first, so I can't imagine that I'm already showing, so it's got to be bloating. Either way....I wish I could live in sweats!

  1. I'm gonna go with bloating? I'm just a few days behind you and I feel, and look, bloated also. I keep worrying that friends who know we're doing the IVF thing are gonna ask if I'm pg. I'm pretty thin, so an extra bulge or some extra thickness is kind of obvious. I keep wishing I was showing, but I know that's probably not true.

  2. My sister says she feels like her pants are tighter already...and we'd only be almost 5 wks. Although, she's had 2 kids before.

  3. I want to be out of the closet!! What a long process!

    Oh ya, my pants are tight, even more so than even last week. I'll go with bloating too, because it's so early...but it's getting worse by the day. I hope that's a good sign.

  4. I concur with the tight pants!!! But...maybe its because i have been eating like a hog! Who knows. I have a friend who had a miscarriage a few weeks ago at 6 weeks. She said she was already wearing the bella bands and was super embarassed when she went in for her ultrasound because the tech saw it. I dont think i will have that shame!

  5. I am super bloated too. Only 1 pair of my work pants fit. I have been wearing dresses with long cardigans to try and cover it up a bit. I am just getting to 8 weeks on Friday. Crazy huh?! I think I am going to have to go today and buy my first pant extender!

  6. Just for the record, the bella band is amazing. Pregnant or not, it can very well be a girl's best friend!

  7. at 10 weeks I am extremely bloated, the one thing that saves is that I wear scrubs in a hospital all week long...honestly though I've been bloated since getting a positive beta
