Am I abnormally big for 12 weeks?

So I was browsing through some belly pics and it seems that my belly is much bigger than most people at 12 weeks. I haven't really been gaining weight anywhere else (a little in my face) and I was just wondering if anyone else seems bigger than they should be? Opinions please on my belly shots...I am getting nervous there is more than one hiding in there!

I think you may be slightly bigger than I was at 12 weeks, but I don't think it's abnormal. Everyone is different. What has your doctor said? I'm sure it's totally normal. I think your belly is very cute and you look terrific. Chat Icon

I think you look so cuteChat Icon Chat Icon

I was looking at some old belly pics of myself and I was bigger between weeks 12-16 than I was at 20 weeks. I think the reason for that is you bloat A LOT at first.

So, I don't think you are abnormally big. And, don't be surprised if you shrink a little in a few weeks then get bigger again. Chat Icon

Re: Am I abnormally big for 12 weeks?

I'm 12 weeks also and in the last week or so I've started to get that extra roundness in my belly. I was in BRU last week and a woman next to me was saying she was 12 weeks and she was bigger then you, and you could tell she was a really thin lady and just all belly. Everyone progresses differently. I would say enjoy the fact that you actually look pg and have a cute belly...I feel like I just look like I'm getting a beer belly.

I think you look great! Please remember that you cannot compare your belly to anyone else's.. everyone gains differently and carries differently. But I truly dont think that you are big whatsoever! Chat Icon

Re: Am I abnormally big for 12 weeks?

I don't think it's too early for you to be showing- everyone is different. Many people on the boards didn't need maternity clothes until they were 20 weeks- I was in them by 12-13 weeks. As long as your Dr. isn't concerned then I wouldn't give it a second thought.

I totally agree. I was fat to begin with so it took me longer to get a PG belly.

Re: Am I abnormally big for 12 weeks?

See - thats what I want to look like already!!!! I love that little belly!!! I'm at the end of my 13th week - and nothing! I notice a little poof, and so does DH when I'm naked, but no one else does.... When I show people, they give me one of these Chat Icon

Re: Am I abnormally big for 12 weeks?

So I went to the doctors yesterday and we heard only ONE heartbeat. She said it is perfectly normal, the size of my belly...now explain this to me...I have only gained 1 lb. so far! My belly is huge--not to mention my bra size has doubled (sorry if TMI!) but still I only gained one pound?? So strange!

I lost 13 pounds, and gained back 5 of them - so I am still 8 pounds less than my pre-PG weight - my bras don't fit, 2 prs of pants already aren't fitting around the belly, but so far, my bump is barely visible....

Ah, the mysteries of pregnancy!!!
