    I am 12 weeks gone now and I have a sizable bump already
    Its kinda embarrassing as everyone is telling me I am the biggest 12 prego they have ever seen and I have to agree with them and its a round firm pouch

    I am a small girl to begin with but I am worried what size will I grow to..

    Nothing is fitting me and its all happening so fast I just want to know has anyone else experience this

    Also this is my first

    It might just be fluid?I was huge early on this time then shrunk a bit and now am much bigger then my last pregnancy but pretty normal looknig for 34 weeks.
    I am quite small too and convinced baba is a monster baby this time:)

    Well I had a scan at 6 weeks and there was one sack and one heart beat so it must be a super giant baby!!!!!

    Some women have super good stomach muscles overs don't. I was visibly pregnant at around 13 weeks with my first if i wore leggings, but if i wore a baggy jumper i could hide it a bit.

    With my 3rd i was visibly pregnant at 8 weeks NO LEGGINS (i wore a suit to work), everyone at work knew because they could see it, so i had to tell them at 8 weeks, they said yeh we figured that.

    At such an early stage a second little heartbeat coud've been missed...;)

    If you're only of small build then you could look more pregnant earlier as there's nowhere for the baba to hide!

    I was the same! Went from a size 10 to 14 in the first 10 weeks of pregnancy and had a rounded tum by 12 weeks. Im small and petite too. Doctor told me it was a food bump :D but it now transpires that Im carrying too much amniotic fluid. I wouldnt worry about it, if the doctor thinks you're fine. Some people get real big at the beginning but even out midway.
