Growing belly

I reached 12 weeks today and I feel like the switch has flipped and suddenly every time I eat, my stomach grows a little bit more! I can't tell if I'm overeating or just getting fuller quicker or what but all I can say is I can't wait to be able to wear sundresses everyday!!

Ok, that is all

Re: Growing belly

I actually found that I was fuller faster once I started to show. I think it is because as your uterus grows it smushes other organs.

The same thing happened to me! I was at a family party this weekend and DH's cousin said 'I can't believe you don't have a belly yet.' I said 'wait until after we eat!' And sure enough, there it was after dinner lol

Re: Growing belly

I often don't have an appitite between aversions and heartburn and when I do eat I eat much less...dh gets mad but I try to explain when I need food trust me my body tells me

Re: Growing belly

I asked my dr about this because I feel like my belly gets huge after I eat, esp dinner. He told me it's actually the intestine and not the stomach and it causes your belly to expand because there's less room now with the baby. Lovely right!
