Too Early to Show W/ First? Posted: 09-17-03 15:27pm
Hello,
i am 8 1/2 weeks and I feel like i'm
starting to show. I can feel my uterus
right above my pubic bone. Isn't this a
little early to be feeling this? I'm
nervous, because i've been very cautious
about my diet and have only gained 3
pounds, yet I am fearful of gaining too
much weight. Is 8 weeks to early to show?

It is a little early but all women are
different. You wont pop out or anything
but your belly might get a little bigger.
Gaining weight is something you need to do
even if you dont want it. The only thing
you can do is walk everyday to help the
labor and weight and eat healthy. Good
luck!

It's not too early at all to "show",
atleast for you to be able to notice it
yourself. Chances are, you're not showing
to anyone else. Typically, if you have a
narrow pelvic structure, you'll show
sooner than someone who is wider or who
has a higher body fat content. I am only
6.5 weeks and I can definitely feel the
uterus above my pubic bone and by the end
of the day i've retained so much fluid I
look like i'm 3-4 months. Keep that in
mind as well - you are probably retaining
quite a bit of water right now. Keeping
salt to a minimum will help with cutting
that down.

With my daughter I didnt' start showing
until about 18 weeks. With this one, I
started pudging out at 10 weeks.
