Q: 9 weeks and showing..Is this normal?!

Hi, there. I'm 9 weeks pregnant and I already have a bump. I haven't been able to wear my jeans for a few weeks now. Is this normal? It is my 3rd pregnancy. My last one was 8 years ago, though.

You could just be carrying this baby more 'in the front' than your other pregnancies? I'm almost 18 weeks and not showing yet, but my doctor says its probably because my uterus is tilted so far backwards.

I am almostt 9 weeks and have been "showing" for a couple weeks, I am normally thin and tight abs but this is my third too and "popped" just like that. I know a lot of it is bloating, but second and third timers bodies already know what to do and their "insides" shift alot easier so your uterus has room. I can try and suck my tummy in and I still have a bump. I also know that even though baby is small, your uterus has thickened and has grown to the size of a grapefruit by now(or so says a lot of pregnancy sites) so its no wonder you are showing :)
