I am now almost 13 weeks pregnant...but I am showing so much...very low too..I swear the ultrasounds showed only one baby..I've had 2 so far cause I'm a high risk...could there be another baby that its not showing? I cannot believe I would show this much at 13 weeks..I gained a little over 10 pounds so far...please...any info or advice?? I have been doing the treadmill and Cathe (modified) about 3-4 days/wk..thanks guys!
 
I don't know about the possibility of having twins and not seeing them but I can tell you that I gained 10 pounds in my first trimester as well and I am only having one baby. That is probably part of the reason why I was in maternity clothes so quickly if you ask me...

HTH:)

Have a great work out!

I am almost 12 weeks with 1 baby as well and I am showing too. Maybe I am wrong, but I would think that the doctor would have noticed if there were two. I think it is rare if one baby is hiding behind another. Is this your first baby? My ObGyn says that is it normal to show earlier with your second pregnancy. So far I have gained 6 pounds. By the time I come back from my Bahama vacation in 1 1/2 weeks I will probably be ready to wear my maternity clothes. My clothes are definitely getting considerably tighter. Now if only I could get my body to do more workouts. Keep up the good work with your workouts. Every woman's body is different when it comes to preparing for a little one. Mine likes to keep as much fat as possible. Good luck!
 
Oh, I'm another one in this group! I'm as far along as Kristi, and my lower abdomen is swelling quite nicely. I'm out of my jeans, but maternity clothes are still inappropriate, so I live in my sweat pants.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! I hope all goes well for you!

Sandra..we are like a week apart too...i am so out of my jeans..I just fit into my maternity jeans..but regular maternity pants are still too big..not for long though..

Wendy, you are an inspiration..I read all your posts and know you work out all the time still..it keeps me motivated!
 
i too, must join this club and i say it seems to be pretty normal. this is my second child and i definitely have a swelled belly! i am out of my normal size clothes and have bought a few things in bigger sizes. i wish i could live in sweats but unfortunately work won't allow it. you may want to check out oldnavy.com. they have maternity clothes for each stage of pregnancy. very reasonable prices....
don't worry about it we will have time to take the weight off once our beautiful babies are here!!!

TYVM!:) That is very kind of you to say. The 10 pounds I put on in the first trimester is what keeps ME motivated to exercise these days!!! :p lol I have also adjusted my eating in the past couple of weeks...It seems to be working. I have not gained any weight in several weeks-I am at 25 pounds and holding steady-and my baby boy is doing just fine! :+

Have a great work out!
