? for those that had a bit of a belly before getting PG

I was trying to lose some weight when I got pregnant but have always had a little jiggly on the belly that sticks out, I am now 8 weeks and have gained 7 lbs the last 4 weeks. I look like maybe 4 months PG right now i think. As your pregnany progressed does your belly basically widen out and look huger and more jiggly than if i was smaller to start or does it tighten as the belly gets bigger so that fat layer is disbursed?

Im just wondering what i am in for and i big i will get. I try to stay away from surgery stuff but i have been following those pregnancy cookbooks so i eat well.

I had a belly before getting pregnant. At 8 weeks, I was still quite bloated. I really started to look pregnant at 19 weeks, but around 15 weeks, I was able to notice it was more baby belly than fat . Now at 34 weeks, it's ALL baby (you can see my last picture in my album).

I just got back from my appt. I asked the exact question. I'm 5 weeks and have a belly (I look 5 months pregnant..ok maybe 4). She said, it will (the belly), move up as my uterus and baby grows. Eventually you will notice mostly baby, but for now it's just belly. She also said, if I'm really good with what I eat and excerise I can maintain this weight and just add on baby weight.
