How big are you???

I am only 7 weeks but I look like I am atleast 6 months! I know you show faster with your second and third pregnancies but NOT this big this quick!! Is anyone else experiencing this or have any ideas why I am?? I know twins are very common in my fam... in my first sono last week, they did say they see something else in the same sac but they cant tell if its another baby or if its the attatchment to my uterus is just really large! Monochromatic twins do also run in my family (i am one as well as my cousins are) but since the dr didnt say yay or nay im still worried something else is wrong since im soooo big!!

i am supposed to have another u/s on june 30! its about 5 weeks away... i have been preggo 3 times including this one... this is the only pregnancy that i have had this bad of symptoms as well as gotten this big so soon!!! i also notice differences in my body that either i didnt have last two pregnancies or i didnt notice (i am very in tune with my body so i am pretty sure i just didnt have these) and its just little things like weird pinches here and there and weird pains... i dont know if i am having twins or not but this sure is a different pregnancy than my last two! and i know every pregnancy is different but this one is just REALLY different lol. Also, i am little... well atleast short... I am 5'1... my body is average.... i had a tiny bit of weight still from my last pregnancy but not nearly what this is!! and the pic on my profile was taken about 2 weeks ago... i have grown alot since then!! it is really strange!!

Hey I really know how you feel. I always have to lose weight before I get pregnant to control my PCOS so it seems that I always end up gaining 10 pounds in the first 10 weeks and it seems like it always goes to my boobs and stomach. I think that sometimes if you have a little bit of left over baby weight from a previous pregnancy then it can definitely make it look more exaggerated. Also, a lot of times women gain a ton of water weight in the beginning of pregnancy and it can also make it look more exaggerated. I think that you will probably look like you are 6 months until you get bigger around 6 months. Also if you are carrying twins then you are going to look twice as big as you would with a singleton. When are you supposed to have another u/s to check to see if you are having twins?
