showing early

Ok ladies.  I am (we think) 7 weeks pregnant with my second.  And I feel like I already look 4-5 mos pregnant.  I've gained almost 5 lbs already and I don't know how because I've been so nauseous I have to force any meals down. Has anyone else had this happen? It's so strange.

I do know that after having a baby once, you show much quicker in your other pregnancies since the uterus is already stretched. I cant speak from experience though since this is my first pregnancy. I'm 9 weeks and have a little pooch in my stomach but its probably mainly due to bloating and gas.

Probably bloating and water weight. I also gained about 5 pounds, and I've been drinking insane amounts of water, but eating less, and more healthy over all. I'm also 7 weeks and look visibly pregnant.
