Hey girls, how's everyone? I'm feeling so fat right now. I'm in this chubby phase where I don't look pregnant but I don't look like the old me. I just want a cute bump already! Those of you who are further along- when did you have a nice round bump?

Well, I always thought I looked fat. I never felt like was showing until about 30 weeks. And even then I felt FAT!
First time Momma's do take longer to show, but you probably are showing babyfeva.
Love the bump Betheney, you are so cute!

Today has been a nightmare!!!! We switched cell company's and the couldn't get my iPhone to activate. So I spent 3/4 of the day with no cell. And I def felt the shakes coming on. 
anyways ended up working in our favor, dh threw a fit and they upgraded my iPhone for 99cents. I did however loose all my contacts in the process. How terrible is it I don't even know my parents numbers. 
oh well they'll call me eventually. 
. Anyways I'm exhausted bed for me talk tomorrow ladies.

Ah, sad to say I'm just growing out of that phase now. It was much longer than I expected. When the first signs of a bump appeared at 11 weeks I figured I was going to get huge right away, but there was never a "pop." I think now, depending on what I'm wearing, most strangers can probably tell but not 100%...but at the very least I am sure they are highly suspicious
For example, last night I was out for dinner and the waiter offered wine...but later when I asked about how much alcohol was in a particular sauce he clearly understood what was going on.

Maybe Roula? I think those can often be nicknames for women in Greece...I've known a couple Roulas where it was a nickname for Argyro.
I was totally NOT showing until at least 21 weeks with my first... I heard you show sooner with your second, but it's not happening for me yet!!!!! When I lay on my back, I can press on my belly and feel the "hard softball" but it hasn't popped out.
Although... I am sure people have noticed I have gained weight!!!
I thought by 16 weeks I would be showing with #2.... but I am still waiting. Will post a pic when I can

Aww I love all the pics leinz!! Ur baby bump makes me soooo excited!! I definitely feel like I have a bump..none of my pants button and ppl are starting to ask questions because I have quite the lil pooch. When i went to my appt they said I gained 6 lbs already. I'm just surprised because I thought it was bloat but it sure is awful hard unlike my bloat bump I thought I had last week or the week before. I'll be excited when its an obvious bump and not that "is she pregnant or just gotten fat" stage
This was 18 weeks with my first pregnancy...... With clothes on, it really just looked like I had gained weight, it wasn't a real "bump" until 21 weeks or so.
I will try and get DH to snap a photo of me now at 16 weeks.... I'm about HALF this picture, ugh
I will admit it makes me a little nervous, like, what if the baby is not developing correctly? 
I know people say the "safe zone" is once you hit the second trimester. BUT after 13 weeks the baby starts taking over and not relying on the mother's body in the same way... so, of course, I get nervous maybe something has gone wrong. OK, done being negative!!! I have felt a few small flutters in there, so I think everything is fine

Haha, well TRUST me, I could've looked like that at 14 weeks too, but it was all bloat. I knew it wasn't a true "bump" if I could suck my stomach in. It was about 18 weeks when I physically could not suck the belly in anymore!!!!! (If I just "let it all hang out" I could pass for much further along in my pregnancy, ha!)
