Is it normal to start showing when you're only 8 weeks pregnant?

Question

Could it be bloating? Is this a pregnancy symptom?

Answer 1

i was told by my midwife that sometimes this can happen as your uterus swells up because of the baby thats beginning to grow there.... it should go back down and then in the middle trimester it will get big again. this time because of the baby getting big!

Answer 2

at 8 weeks the baby is only about 1/2 in long

its also hidden below your pubic bone

it is common to be bloated or constipated in your first trimester and end up with a puffy stomach

Answer 3

The baby is too small to actually show,but when you are pregnant you lay down extra fat on your abdomen, thighs and b*****s,all ready for you to breast feed once the baby is born.

Answer 4

normally no, but it is possible. Especially if this is not your first pregnancy.

Answer 5

you can not normaly show at this stage but some people do.

obviously its not the baby it is jus extra fluid you are carrying which is bloating you out which is perfectly normal and not harmful in anyway.

anover reason why people can have a bump that earlier is if they are carrying twins.

the size of the bump also depends on your build whether you are skinny medium or large. obviously if your skinny you will show bigger.

its not the baby thou as the baby is a few mm long.

Answer 6

Your just fat.

Answer 7

i was showing at 8 week and this is my first its not common but yes some people do show that early
