This sux.

This sux.

So how exactly do I explain this to people.

I look pregnant...have a hard round belly. I cant suck it in or hide it and it is NOT getting any better.

Ive been asked multiple times now when I am "due" by various strangers. I just reply with "not for a while" and laugh it off.

THANK GOD I am not working right now, but the drs say this could take several WEEKS to subside. WEEKS.

How am I supposed to return to work in september looking 5 or 6 months pregnant. I will need all new clothes...possibly maternity clothes. How am I supposed to explain this to my students and coworkers?!?!?!!?

I have a wedding tomorrow night. I have been hysterical all day because there is NO WAY to hide this. I had to call the bride on the day before her wedding to explain things and try and find a dress that would fit....which makes me look even MORE pregnant.

I look in the mirror and I look pregnant. I find myself putting my hand on my stomach....it's horrible really.

Cruel cruel joke.

Yesterday and today were much better emotion-wise, but Im still sportng the belly. I want to say it feels like it is less today, which I dont know if I should be happy or sad about because I know it should be getting worse if I am pg.

That being said, I am only 6 days post transfer, so the dr said my symptoms might subside for a few days and then get bad again when the HCG starts to rise.
Chat Icon thanks for cking on me!

I'm thinking about you. If you are pregnant you won't have a belly for weeks/months so don't go by that.

What a mind fcuk this is for you. I'm so sorry.

No, I know that it wont be a "real" pregnant belly for a while, but the Dr said it will get better without pg hormones and worse with them, so if the bloating totally goes away, I am probably not pg.

Don't read into that too much. It will make you crazy. I hope you feel better and get good news at the end of the 2ww.
