anxious mommy popping in from end of 1st try to ask a question..

[runnergrl]

When did YOU start to show? I know everyone is different, and every pregnancy is different, but being just shy of 13 weeks, I 'think' I am starting to show, but i have had several people tell me its impossible and that it is just bloat..

Would be so helpful if I could get some real answers from some of you

Thanks in advance

Hi, I didn't start to show properly until I was well onto the 20 weeks stage & even then it wasn't obvious. I didn't officially pop until I was around 33/34 weeks lol. Now u feel huge! Lol x

to be honest, although i had a bump from about 16 weeks i didnt look pregnant until about 33 weeks...people would have thought i was just getting fatter as i still had a line in the middle of my tummy that made it look like roles...only 4 weeks ago did that disappear and people only started noticing last month

also i never 'popped' my bump growth was gradual so i never noticed a massive difference at once x

Flat as a pancake until 23 weeks then boy did he make himself known after that! x

I think I started showing at around 12 weeks!!! very early so yeah it is possible, its probably more noticable to you than other people tho but yep i do believe that you may have a little buldge hehe x

I didn't start to show noticeably until around 28 weeks - but I'm a larger woman.
My cousin is very small, and she had a (small) bump at 10 weeks! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it.
My best friend's SIL had a bump at 9-10 weeks too, apparently. I didn't see it, but my best friend was shocked!
I'm not sure if they were bloat or not...but I would say it's definitely possible to start showing that early.

Thank you all.. I think i just want to show so badly than even if I am showing to me, youre right, it wont be obvious to others for quite a while.. I like wearing clothes that are snug around my belly (not pants, but longer shirts) and you can see the 'bump' better I think

Thanks again Good luck with your births, all of you! Im sure time will fly and I'll be over here in no time!

I had a little belly at 15wks, but didnt show until 25wks

at about 25 weeks but i was still verry flat. Im with twins though so actually should be bigger but i still arent very big now. So it just depends on different factors.

I was maybe 25 weeks along before even people who knew could tell a difference. I'm tall though, 5' 10, I think that makes a difference. I was REALLY far along before a stranger commented, like 35 weeks.

Until about 15 weeks I had serious bloat and then started to show but the size of my bump went down from bloat to baby!

 

[lushious09]

i didnt really start showing till around 20weeks... at 15 weeks i barely looked pregnant just bloated didnt pop until well into my 20s

Well that is helpful! It will be interesting for me to look back on when I first "thought" i was showing once I am further along. I will probably laugh at my being so anxious and silly

 

[vinteenage]

I started to actually show around 22 weeks. Then at about 26 weeks I really popped.

 

[Fiore]

about 26 weeks it suddenly became a bump rather than a bloat. Everyone seemed to notice it at the same time! My belly button has only just popped out though xx

 

[Wanta2010baby]

Around 22 weeks!

 

[sciencemum]

id say about 25 weeks i looked more pregnant than bloated

 

[newmommy23]

21 weeks...I was so freaking not showing before that. She popped overnight. I'm still not super big.

 

[amandaawesome]

first 2 pics are from me at 14 +6 but it is my 3rd child. now granted my ob did say it was like my body was having it's first in a way. my youngest son is almost 9. i was a tiny size us 0 before i got pregnant.

second pic is at 20wks exactly.

third pic is 24wks. BIG difference!!!!!

I had friends/family noticing at around 14 weeks. But strangers didn't start asking when baby was due until I was about 20
