forth pregnancy

Hi there everyone I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this about their forth prenancy. I'm only 6 and a half weeks pregnant but I woke up yestarday and there was no way I could get my pants on. lol I haven't gained any weight at all yet but wow my lower tummy sure is expanding. I have heard that you start to show earlier with every pregnancy you have but I never could have emagined that I would show this early. I thought it could be blotting but I am just as big in the morning as I am in the evening so I really don't think it is that. My morning sickness is much more intense than with my previous prenancies as well? Hopefully twins aren't coming...yikes that would be tough;)

I'm on preg #8 (including 2 - 1st trimester m/c's) and I found that my clothes got tighter earlier on even tho I was losing weight in the beginning.  Now that I'm almost 20 weeks (on friday) it seems like my belly is growing by leaps and bounds.  I have a pair of maternity jeans that are adjustable, I was wearing them on the tightest setting, didn't wear them for a week and had to let them out some when I put them on the other day.  Like KarenDiane said...my stomach muscles are jelly too and my poor ligaments, I'm just not sure they have any elasticity left in them at all.

I just had my 4th last August 2009. I have noticed with each baby I got bigger faster but with #4 I guess it wasnt much change in the begining but only because my 3rd son was only 3 months old when I found out and I still had alot of pregnancy weight there. But with each baby baby I was always so bloated the first trimester!! I always thought it must be more than one baby, lol! Congrats on your pregnancy!!! I hope you have an easy 7 and a half months!!!
