If you're pregnant and bleeding bright red, go to the doctor/hospital asap. As for your symptoms, lower back pain usually only comes when you are carrying a lot of extra weight. Also, if this is your first, it's very unlikely that you would be growing out of your clothes already. The baby is too tiny to make a difference to your waistline. These symptoms you're having could be caused by something else so get some medical advice.

This post is a few days old, so I hope you have seen a Dr. by now. But, in case you haven't, you really need to be seen by someone. Any bleeding during pregnancy needs to be sought out by a Dr. It can be nothing at all or it could be a miscarriage or a threatened miscarriage. Bloating and waistline expansion is common at 8 weeks. It is caused by bowel distention and water retention though rather then the size of the baby. Good Luck and I will keep you in my prayers!
