I bloat up instantly, right from the first few days. My breasts, belly, and face swell. I feel fine in the morning, but by evening, it's all there. As a bonus, my face is constantly puffy and red, and by evening I also get hot. After 6 PM, I basically turn into a "balloon." Relatives and friends can immediately tell something's up with me 🤣 no mystery there 🫣🫠

Kristina I'm just getting really swollen. It's awful. It's uncomfortable to walk around in jeans, I feel like the Michelin Man 😂

Marina Boldyreva I'm not exactly thin right now either, at 63kg, but I've suddenly retained a lot of fluid +2.5kg in a few days 🥺 It's uncomfortable to wear skinny jeans, and my belly has marks right from the seams 🥲

Marina Boldyreva Because you're not chubby! 😁
Chubby is when you have to buy pants with an elastic waistband and no skinny jeans 🤣

No. At 38 weeks, a friend commented that the only sign of pregnancy I had was my belly. I was surprised – what else is supposed to be there?

Yes, I gained a lot in all four of my pregnancies and my belly showed quickly. But I'm always on progesterone, which causes weight gain, appetite, and swelling for many. I'm one of those who react that way to it. Whether it's Duphaston or Utrogestan, I always gain weight in the first few months while on progesterone. It's not as bad later on. Right now, I'm up 6 kg (from 59 to 65 kg) in the first trimester((( and my belly is already noticeable

MIRTsELLA I would have known I was pregnant even without taking a test, just by how I felt overall. I wake up in the morning feeling okay, without swelling, but my face is red and puffy 24/7, and by evening I'm completely swollen 🤕

Kristina You're so lucky 😂 I wish I could feel that way too, but I think the progesterone my body produces is making me feel sluggish.

Kondrateva Ekaterina I'm only drinking fennel tea. My own progesterone is enough to make me swell 😂 it really retains fluid.

Yuliya I'm getting these progesterone-induced swellings, my whole face is puffy and my belly too.
My pregnant belly itself isn't huge, it started showing after 20 weeks. I don't know how it'll be in the third trimester though)))

With my older one, I was a bit chubby, but my face didn't puff up; with my younger one, I looked beautiful with no swelling or extra weight.

Kondrateva Ekaterina It's good when you have enough of your own. Synthetic or in capsules can cause even more weight gain because the dosages are unfortunately huge. But it's okay. I've lost weight three times after childbirth, and I hope I can do it a fourth time :)

Kondrateva Ekaterina I still haven't lost the extra 15 lbs))) 🤣 Now I'm scared to eat, I gained 37 lbs during my second pregnancy. That means I can only gain 22 lbs now 🥲 otherwise I'll be 176 lbs 😩 I plan to go to the pool twice a week after my gynecologist clears me and to consult a nutritionist to help me create a proper meal plan. I also had GDM during my second pregnancy.

MIRTsELLA Ttt, I'm not swollen. Although I understand progesterone in high doses. From week 14 to 16, we visited my in-laws - didn't think of it.
All 3 pregnancies without toxicosis or any distinguishing signs

Kondrateva Ekaterina I gained 24 kg during my third pregnancy and breastfeeding. I lost 29 kg. Last summer, I was in my prime at 56 kg. But the good times didn't last. I gained a little weight on vacation, up to 59 kg, and then... hello! Every time I lose weight, I immediately get pregnant.
