I am now 14 weeks pregnant. I am finally starting to show, however it looks more fat than the cute round belly. I feel bloated all the time and feel like I have a ton of water weight. I feel like what is showing is the bloating and water weight. Is this normal? Is my belly from all the bloating and not the baby growing? I am embarrassed because I feel like I shouldn't have a belly this soon and to me I just look fat. I want to tell people "I swear I am not standing in line at Krispy Kreme Donuts everyday".

Try increasing your water consumption. This should help.

Try to stay away from salty foods, even though you may be craving them, they will make you retain a bunch of water. Don't be self conscious every one gains weight during a pregnancy. If you are feeling more fat than pregnant get you some really cute maternity tops that "announce" your pregnancy with funny sayings, that way you can tell the world you are pregnant and not just fat without saying a word.
By the way congrats!!
