Mocha I will show you my tummy from last week on 6 weeks lol will make you feel better haha
Shocking lol
Cute 'bump', TTC5! :bigsmile: I've had a bump like that since day 1 too - literally, the day of my BFP, my belly blew up like a balloon. The only difference now is it doesn't 'deflate' at certain times of day, and it always feels really firm. I know it's probably still just bloat, especially since the baby's only the size of a raspberry, but it's just getting harder and harder to hide - especially since after the weight loss I got into the habit of wearing very fitted clothes, so now it looks strange that I'm wearing baggy stuff and layers all the time.
I know it's not huge, but with the diet my stomach was completely flat before, so it's really noticeable. I've finally given up wearing my normal (post-diet) jeans and have moved into the jeans I wore before I lost all the weight.
you should see my bloat too, pretty impressive for just 4+4 I think!
I've got to try and hide this from work, etc. as we've not actually told anyone IRL yet other than my doctor. My tummy was pretty flat before BFP, especially after the diet.

ETA - sorry about picture quality, it's the camera phone!
Nice bloat, rainbow! (And BTW you look like you're one hot mama!) Sometimes I wonder if we pink swayers are more prone to bloat because our bodies have adjusted to pretty much no salt then we start suddenly eating a normal (which in my case is high salt) diet. I bloated like this during my brief pregnancy last Fall too, but I don't remember having nearly this much bloat with my other two pregnancies, when there was no diet involved. Or is it just because this is my 4th pregnancy that I'm bloating this much? Or maybe because I was pregnant so recently (my m/c was mid-November, and I was 11 weeks along)?
Here's the results from the cabbage test with FMU. Well, I guess it wasn't technically FMU since I was up peeing about 5 times in the night, but it was the best I could do. I'm also not 100% sure I mixed the pee and cabbage water in exact proportions, but it was pretty close.

What do you think? When I look at it without light shining through, it's a deep black-blue, but when I hold it up to a light it's a much lighter purple. Is it purple or red/pink?
I think its purple and cute bumps everyone!
looks purple to me too
I think you might be right, Mocha. A bit of both - partly because we're suddenly eating salt again, partly because more pregnancies = more tummy muscle stretchniess to show bloating?
I am not telling work till 12 weeks either (or the inlaws haha!!)
I think that is purple, Mocha. I am going to try that test this weekend.
