Feeling BIG
I am 11 weeks pregnant with twins and am SO grateful! I had a loss my last pregnancy at 9 weeks so I'm very anxious about being so "out there" about my pregnancy this time before I'm out of my first trimester. However, my belly is HUGE (EVERYONE comments about how big it is already - granted they don't know I'm pregnant with twins) and I'm a little self conscious about being SO big, so soon. People think I am at least 5 months and I'm only 11 weeks!!! Did anyone else get a big belly really early on?

Re: Feeling BIG
I was pretty bug early on. Not sure how early but a lot of it in the first trimester was due to bloat. It didn't really become "baby" until the second trimester. Congratulations!

Re: Feeling BIG
at 5 weeks I knew I was pregnant. At 8 and 11 weeks I was so big it was obvious that I was preggo. I heard you always get bigger faster with your 2nd. Plus with twins I guess that just made me bigger.

Embrace the BIG belly! It means your little ones are growing! I didn't really realize how big I was until the end!
Love every minute of it!!!!

Re: Feeling BIG
This is only the beginning!
I already had DS when I got pregnant with the twins. By 11 weeks I was completely in maternity clothes. I definitely got big quick the second time around.
I remember being in the mall with DS when I was about 35 weeks with the girls. A lady in the elevator said to me "Wow, you must be really close to the end or carrying twins" in a snarky, sarcastic kind of way. I said "both, any other comments?"
Don't stress it. People always judge even if that isn't their intention. Enjoy every moment you have your babies in your belly. It doesn't last long enough!!
