BLOAAAATED and trynna hide it for a surprise

Y’ALL! Please tell me I’m not the only one who bloats ridiculously fast! I’m only five weeks right now, and look like I’m 12 (this is the most flattering picture of my “bump” I could get 😂). I get a little bloated when I’m on my period, but usually I have a *relatively* flat stomach.

This is baby number two. I bloated quick with my daughter, but not quite this quick. I have no clue how I’m going to hide this pregnancy!

Mine and my husbands family all lives out of state, so our (evil?) plan is not to tell anyone we are expecting, and show up for Thanksgiving hugely pregnant and surprise them! I’m a little worried we won’t be able to pull it off because I feel like pregnancy is written all over my face and I’m so active on social media and YouTube— as a means of keeping family and friends up to date with what’s going on in our lives. I’m really unsure how to proceed with normal life, so as not to raise suspicion that something is up to our family, but also avoid posting any sort of clues. I’d looooove to pull this off! Let me know if you have any advice, or if it’s just mean and we should tell family like normal people would.

I feel like in the fall it will be no big deal, because we have the oversized sweaters and leggings for days. It would be easy to hide! But in the dead of summer... I don’t know if I’ll be able to keep the secret all the way through the season!

And seriously. Tell me I’m not alone on the bloat train 😂

I hope that all made sense. My brain is all over the place these days!!
