Feeling fat- vent

Johanna • Sun, Jul 13 • Mommy to baby boy born 02/02/15

Ok so I'm almost 11 weeks pregnant so I have not announced my pregnancy. However I am definitely starting to show!! I keep reading that I'm not supposed to be showing yet, but I definitely have a little bump and my clothes just don't fit anymore. I'm sure I gained some weight from eating too but anyway I feel like it's so obvious that I look pregnant now. Or I just feel fat. I don't want to share the news until after my 12 week US but that means I feel like I can't be around people right now. Ugh. And my poor husband is trying to be supportive but I feel like I am driving him crazy always asking him if this outfit makes me look fat/pregnant. How do I hide for the next week and a half before I announce???

Also did anyone else gain early and then not gain as much later? That's what I'm hoping for since I've already gained weight. This is my first pregnancy too and I feel like everyone here talks about how they didn't show at all until middle to end of second trimester. Ok, end of vent. Thanks.
