is this even possible!?

I'm 7w4d and I have a belly!!

At first I thought it was just me, but then yesterday DH said he had noticed it as well (he just didn't want to say anything). He said it looks like a bump because the rest of my stomach is still relatively flat but the towards the waistline I'm starting to stick out.
I already gained 6lbs since my BFP.
We're going to Florida so I tried on all my shorts to see which ones fit- NONE of them fit!!

I attached a pic. Can you see the belly? Is it even possible to have a belly this early? It's only my first!

When you are really thin you tend to "show" ealier". At 7 weeks it mainly bloat because the uterus and baby aren't really that big yet but it's definitely a start! By 10 weeks you'll probably be obviously pregnant! Chat Icon

first of all Congrats!!. it looks like a little bump but what i found for me in the beginning my belly one day was out then flat then out. I think its just that until you cant suck it in any more.

Anyway you look great.

In the very beginning, you'll notice your stomach could be flat in the morn and then have a belly by the end of the day. It's mainly bloat at that point. I bloat a lot. Always have and I remember having a pretty decent looking bump at 10 weeks that looked like baby but would disappear by the morn LOL. I too was skinny (not as much as you) but I did end up showing earlier than most bc of it. Either way, it's soo exciting to see!!!

Thank you! Chat Icon I think I can probably see it because I see myself every day. I was hesitant to post a pic because I was thinking people would think I'm crazy lol. The thing that gets me is my clothes don't fit!!! (So I think I'm probably just looking for an excuse that my clothes don't fit!)

i can't see the pic but honestly knowing how super thin you are, i'm not surprised that your clothes don't fit already. i had the same problem almost immediately i couldn't button my pants, and you are much smaller than I was. and fwiw, people were "talking" when I was only 5-6 weeks Chat Icon

you look amazing. whatever you have now is only bloat, the baby and your uterus are much too small to really show. but the bloat will eventually turn to baby belly.

My first thought was " you have no idea what you are in for!" My "bump" is more like a road block now at 28 weeks.Chat Icon

Bloat, water weight, and gas Chat Icon are usually the first symptoms of pregnancy. No way are you "showing" yet, but it is pregnancy related.

I don't think I've ever been so bloated in my life Chat Icon (except maybe that time I had dairy queen 3 times in one day...)

This is exactly right. Even if your stomach is super flat (which yours clearly is), it doesn't mean you will show sooner. I had a 4-pack when I got pregnant and I didn't start to show until about 14-15 weeks.

I had the same experience. On bad days, I looked like I had period bloat. I told my job at 11 weeks & they thought I was kidding.

look at my album to see what you're in for... Chat Icon just kidding. I was the same way early on, thought I had a belly, got excited, etc. Little did I know how big I would get by the end.
But seriously ENJOY! Pregnancy is the one time its Cool to have a big fat belly. Chat Icon
