Hi ladies, just hoping for reassurance.
This is my 2nd pregnancy (first ended in early mmc earlier this year)
I'm just over 13 weeks. I'm a size 8 usually.
I know 1st pregnancies might not start showing for a little while longer but feel completely normal.. I have been pressing to see if can feel my uterus poking up but nada...
I haven't gained any weight but perhaps lost a couple of pounds due to nausea and vomiting which has settled.
Had healthy scans at 6, 9 and 11+4 (privately)
Got my nhs scan on Thursday.
Feel quite well and just wondering when your first bumps started to appear
TIA! X
 
I had a teeny tiny bump at 12 weeks with my first, but didn't start looking noticeably pregnant until about 16 weeks. I do have a short torso though, so baby tends to poke outwards, as there's not much room upwards.
 
I only had a little "pooch" at 14 weeks but nothing extreme or noticeable. Most my popping has been happening over the last month.
 
I still don't look noticeably pregnant. I am tall though so there's plenty of room for baby to go.
 
I had a bump by 6 weeks. I'm 15w5d and I've already got a bump. I'm embracing it though :)

I didn't start showing obviously until 6 months, but thats because I wear loose clothing. People are always amused at my size.
I haven't changed my body shape, its just my expanding stomach which you don't really notice unless Im side on.
 
I'm tall, with a long torso so with my first I didn't really start showing till about 6 months. This one was a lot sooner.
 
This is my 3rd pregnancy and I still didn't get a bump until 17 weeks, now at 23 weeks depending on what I wear most people can't tell I'm pregnant. Sometimes it's annoying, I feel like I'm at that "fat stage" right now, 12 lbs gained and a barely noticeable bump.
 
I'm in my 13th week too!

I just started getting an actual bump (that wasn't bloat) the last couple of weeks. I still haven't gained any weight due to persistent nausea and vomiting through first tri too. With my first two I didn't start showing until close to 20 weeks. I look about that at the end of the day when the bloat piles on on top of lol
 
I am having my third and am 17 weeks and literally just starting to get a bump - but it feels more like fat tummy than bump yet unfortunately.
 
I am 21 and people are starting to see the bump. Coworkers are saying I'm popping out. But I still feel like I am just fat though.
 
I don't think I actually had a bump until 14 weeks, but I'm also very short and baby literally has nowhere to go but out (IMO) it depends on a lot of different factors, your height (possible weight too) if you have a long torso vs. a short one, if your uterus is tilted forward or not ect. Don't worry you'll have one soon! :)
 
I was told I was showing at 14 weeks by people who know me, strangers didn't start noticing until 16 weeks (avatar is me at 17 weeks). I am really short and also had appalling muscle tone pre pregnancy so I feel I popped out easily, my bloat in the evening at 10 weeks actually had someone ask when I was due hahaha awkward!
 
I had a little pooch at 12 weeks. I didn't have a bump until about 16-17 weeks. Now I feel like my bump is getting bigger by the second lol
 
18- 20. I'm 21 with my first I'm poking out though. Still feeling fat.
 
It was around 16-17 weeks that I started getting a 'bump'. I was able to hide until this past week though. Now I can no longer fit into my pre pregnancy jeans, it's much more obvious (I am an hourglass figure, so my jeans are usually a size or two larger than needs be for my tummy, just to accommodate my rather large arse haha).
 
I'm 6 months 1 week on Thursday. (25 weeks) I still don't have a noticeable bump. I mean, I have a little one that I notice.. but to others I don't look "pregnant" yet. I'm wondering when I'm going to pop all of a sudden. It must happen soon. LoL.

Me too, exactly this. I looked pregnant naked starting around 18 weeks, but no comments from strangers until 23 weeks.
 
Mine varies a lot depending on gas and what I eat, but I look noticeably pregnant to DH and I, but people who don't know me would just think I'm a little chubby in the tummy, which I've never been before. I'm excited for the bump to be more pronounced though. I've only gained 5lbs at 17.5 weeks so far.
 
I'm 18 weeks and still not really showing. I have a tiny bump when naked and when I first wake up, but it looks more like bloat as the day goes on. I'm short and already pudgy so that's probably why
