Holy Bloat!

I can't tell if I'm just going to be absolutely giant this time around, or if my belly is just really consistantly constantly bloated. Really, I'm huge! It's a little less earlier in the day thankfully, but by night I look like I could be 20 weeks pregnant instead of just almost 7. I think that's a good sign though, as I'm gaining weight (from 114 to 118.5) and I'm bloated insanely, which is never a problem any other time. I haven't been this close to 120 since I was pregnant last time, so I'm assuming everything is working pretty well.

To see what I'm talking about, I just stood up and took some pictures of this massive belly:

(to compare, here is my 4.5 week picture - niiiice and flat, yes? This was just a short two weeks ago!)

And tonight:




I mean, right? I'm huge! I know it's a lot of bloating, but I've never ever been so bloated in my entire life, including the last two pregnancies. My body is really running with this expanding stuff it seems! I'm sure eating every two hours (not mere snacks usually, either) is probably not helping my bloating situation, but if I don't eat that much that often, I get violently sick and dry heave constantly and then I can't even step into the kitchen - bad news for both me and my dogs who need me to venture in so they can go potty and get fed. I just can't believe how fast this thing took off!
