Bump or bloat?

Question

I am 9 weeks 2 days and since the moment I hit the 9 week mark I feel like my belly has popped out! It is hard and I can't suck it in. Is it possible to be showing this early or am I just very bloated??

Answer

If you can't suck it in I'd say that's bump!

Answer

I'm the same at 9 weeks 5 days. I think it's just slot of bloat. Anytime I eat it seems my belly gets super bloated. But in the mornings it goes back to flat

Answer

I had my first appointment yesterday, 8w5d and my doctor told me my uterus was enlarged, as it's supposed to be the size of a grapefruit at this point. So I don't think your statement is entirely accurate Kristine. I'm also bloated, so I feel big. But the bloat is from pregnancy, along with all my other annoying yet wonderful symptoms, and I couldn't be happier- so bump or bloat- it's all the same! 👶🏼💗

Answer

Your uterus doesn't go above the pubic bone until about 12 weeks. Your doctor cant even find it to check until that time....some people will give me negative comments for this, but your doc will say the same thing. Sorry, but it's bloat unless your having multiples.
