Fluctuating belly size?

    Ok bit of a strange one here but it's bugging me.

    Basically I'm 13 +2 and I'm finding that when I get up in the morning my belly seems fairly flat bar a little bulge in the end and to look at me you wouldn't really think I was preggers.. However as the day goes on it seems to expand more and more and by the time evening comes around I clearly look pregnant..

    I know this is probably due to eating and drinking during the day and the fact that there's less space in there etc.. but it's just such a huge difference :confused: and I'm almost feeling disappointed when I get up and my nice round belly is gone again..

    Am I just losing my marbles here or did/are others finding this aswel?

    Cheers

    someone i know had this - barely a bump in the morning, then bigger in the evening - she was the type to know everything about pregnancy so if it was a problem, she wouldnt have laughed it off like she did.

    check with your gp anyway - but think its fine

    This use to happen to me too! I would have a jelly belly in the morning and then at night the bump was notiable! I think it has to do with the position baby is lying in and of coarse what you eat and drink. Dont worry though in another few weeks you will have a nice round

    This was me at 14 weeks and then
    no less than 10 weeks later ---> (on me holidays :D )

    My bump stayed some what the same sized after this

    31 weeks here

    Then towards the end of the pregnancy it became quite pointy!

    This was 36 weeks a few nights before I was induced.

    Enjoy your pregnancy, it goes by so fast!

    I am the same, and am only 10.5 weeks gone.
    A little bump in the morning.. but by evening I look 5 months gone! Plus I am constipated... I think thats contributes. ☺

    I am very short and was a size 6.. ( now a ten) !!!!!! scary!

    I was like this on my first - I remember staying with a friend and her being mesmerised at the change in me over the course of one day. I didn't look a bit pregnant in the mornings!

    I'm 9wks on my second and in a similar situation. My clothes are digging into me by the time I get home from work but I'm grand first thing. Another crazy side effect of pregnancy! ;)

    Yep, same thing happened to me too!

    I think it's perfectly normal. For me I found that it all had a lot to do with my food intake and bowel movements as well :o
