Question on your size and what you are having

Wow, I am full of posts today.

I was curious,l and I thought this would be fun. We were talking about how big we are/were in our first trimester. I was wondering if it has anything to do with what the sex of the baby is.

So this is basically for the women who are further along and already know what they are having.

How big were you at 10-12 weeks? (meaning, were you showing, were you in maternity clothes, etc?)
Are you having a or a ?
Did you have m/s and was it severe?

edited to make it more clear

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

I didn't pop until the middle of my 7th month for all 3 kids.. (2 boys and 1 girl) I had m/s for all 3 kids but my m/s stopped at around 11-12 weeks for #1 and #2 (2 boys) and with my daughter, it started later on (around 9-10 weeks) and it lasted until about 16 weeks

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

i had virtually no m/s, and was a early on even though i'm tiny at 5'.

we're having a

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

I was not showing at 10-12 weeks.
I was nauseaous for weeks, but never actually got sick.
I'm having a girl.

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

I started showing around 10 weeks, bad morning sickness...and for us!

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

This is exactly what my mom claims!! She said she knew I was having a because where I put on weight the 1st trimester!

I had bad m/s from 6-9 weeks, the 24/7 dizzies. I am not a puker, but i was miserable!

I was out of my own pants by 10 weeks, totally bloated and feeling like a cow. I was in maternity shirts after 20 weeks. My face back and chest broke out, I never get pimples on any of those areas!

I gained weight in my butt, thighs, hips, and the sides almost immediately. Kinda like my whole shape was changing.

The only thing my mom still laughs about is that according the the old wives tales, I am carrying the baby all out in front, like a basketball, I should be having a boy. My family asks me all the time if i am sure it's a girl, cause my belly looks like I am carrying a boy.

How big were you at 10-12 weeks?

I was still on the thin side at 10-12 weeks. You would never know I was pregnant. I didn't start wearing maternity pants until 22+ weeks and I'm still not in maternity tops. I only really started showing the last couple of weeks (25-27 weeks).


Are you having a or a ?




Did you have m/s and was it severe?

No m/s, no serious symptoms at all...just felt bloated and unmotivated.


ETA: everybody thinks/thought I was having a boy.

Now you can say look at Katie Holmes, she was nothing BUT belly and she had a girl!

That's because Tom starved her

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

At 10-12 weeks I didn't even know I was preggo! I was sick (m/s) but didn't realize it was m/s. I didn't start wearing maternity until about 4.5-5months and I didn't fully pop (to where you could notice i was preggo) until about 29weeks.

I am having a !!!! Even at 32 weeks, I have gained 25lbs but it's all belly (I posted a pic a few days ago)

Strangers say to me "how far along are you?" When I tell them they say "Oh you're having a boy" and when I say "Yes I am" They say "Yup you can tell, all belly!"

Re: Question on your size and what you are having

No m/s, and I started showing around 20 weeks. However, I was EXTREMELY fatigued. I was in bed by 8:30PM every night.
I did need maternity jeans at like 9-10 weeks or so maternity tops around 22-23 weeks. I am having a . Look in my profile I was 6 months preggo (27 weeks) in that pic, we were on our babymoon in Hawaii.
