When did you start to show?

[Breeelizabeth]

I'm 16+3 and don't look pregnant at all. I lost about 8kgs during the first trimester because of hyperemisis and I'm starting to worry, I've seen heaps of photos of friends' bumps and they're visibly pregnant at this stage and I'm not.
When did you ladies start to show?

 

[LeoTheLion]

with my first i was quite small at 8st so didn't show untill i was about 23 weeks, this time i got pregnant at 10st and started to show very early on at 12 weeks, im now 24 weeks and have a proper bump r
Everyone is different tho, i had really strong stomach muscles first time round from riding racehorses. xx

I'm 14 weeks n got a bit of a bump but o think most of it is bloat, I can see and feel where my uterus is though, it's Def not as high up as where my belly is showing but I figure that's probably because everything is getting squished up

I'm 20 + 3 and i'm barely showing. I'm showing to me and my husband but if you didn't know i was pregnant you wouldn't think i was pregnant. I have gained 7 lbs so far and i'm fairly tall so that helps but I feel like my days are numbered for not showing hahaa. thats why i told my boss yesterday. It's also my first so that slows down the showing process. I'm predicting by week 22, it will be fairly obvious. Also my MIL is Italian from italy and she keeps commenting on how I dont look pregnant and i need to eat. I'm like thats not how it works lol.

I'm 28 weeks and five days and still don't look obviously pregnant. I'm 6ft tall though and this is my first, so I probably won't look very pregnant until right before I deliver. Everyone is different, I know is hard not to but don't compare your bump or lack there if to others.

From about 15 weeks on.
I'll never forget I had a big get together and dinner with friends at 18 weeks and the owner of the restaurant asked me how far along I was. When I said 18 weeks she asked if it was twins!
I'm quite a small girl so the weight gain is very noticeable.

I looked fat between 18 and 20 weeks. I didn't observe when exactly, but I started showing sometime after 20 weeks and even now if I wear a loose blouse, I just look fat instead of looking like I have a bump.

 

[itsnowmyturn]

Gosh I feel very lucky to have a bump at 14 weeks then, ppl already comment that I'm growing, I was always hoping for a little bump early on, I still think I look a bit more like iv been at the pies when I sit down or without clothes over it but it's Def there, sure I won't be as happy when I'm huge at 30 weeks lol

 

[Ashersmomma]

With my first I didn't show until between 16-18 weeks. And even then I just looked like I needed to lay off the donuts It wasn't until about 20 weeks that I finally started to round out. With this one, I've been showing since just after my bfp I would have preferred to not show for a little bit yet. I'm 14w3d and I've put on about 4-5 inches around my belly, but lost about 2lbs over all.(I keep losing, then gaining, then losing again)

 

[MommyFirefly]

I started showing at 20 weeks. I'm 22 weeks now and just starting to round out.

At 16+5, I had a little "something" that was no longer bloat but you'd never know if I didn't tell you. At 21+4, if you knew I was pregnant it was obvious - otherwise I just looked like I'd gained a good few pounds. I "popped" between 24 and 25 weeks. The 3rd photo is 25.

 

[Nina83]

I started to get a bit more of a "bloat" around 17 weeks. Now I'm in that "looks fat phase", but people are starting to notice (I was totally flat before) so I'm going with 20 weeks.

 

[RaspberryK]

I had my first stranger ask me yesterday afternoon xx

 

[ducky1502]

With my first it was 22 weeks before I had a proper bump. Second time I was rounding up at 13/14 weeks. This time im 11wks and nothing yet.

 

[lovepurple90]

I am 14 weeks + 2 days and all I have is my usual bloat. But I'm 5'10 and apparently taller women will take longer to show that shorter women. So I'm not expecting to show anytime soon unfortunately! x

With my first I had HG and lost about 5kg. My normal clothes were too big for me until I was about 17 week. I could see my bump when I looked in the mirror without clothes from about 16 weeks but I didn't show to others until I was about 25 weeks. Then my bump got huge really quick!

This time the sickness was not quite as bad. I still weigh less than when I got pregnant but I didn't loose so much. I am not any bigger around and fit comfortably in my clothes but I am looking a bit of a different shape already at 15 weeks.

LO was born healthy at 9lbs 5oz so it didn't do her any harm!

 

[Breeelizabeth]

Thanks ladies! I've decided not to worry as much now, as long as I feel bub moving around in there my mind is much more at ease!

 

[Selaphyna]

with DS1, I hardly had any sickness, didn't lose weight, and started pooching out around 16 weeks, but to those outside my son's father, and my parents, most didn't notice I was pregnant until about 24 weeks.

This time around, I started pooching out 13-14 weeks, but not noticeably pregnant to everyone else until 20-21 weeks. Even my OH didn't really notice it until then. And I had sickness with this one, and lost weight in 1st tri.

 

[emeeorevan]

Started bloating at 8 weeks! Although it was bloat it looked alot like a baby bump. At about 13 weeks bloat started to recede and baby bump took over! Now at 16 weeks I get the "wow, you're only how far?" and such. But for a nice change today someone (an obvious mom) asked when I was due and when I told her I had about five months left she said"wow, you're hardly showing!" I think she was trying to be polite and understanding (maybe even try to get on my good side since she was my server, but hey its the nicest bump comment I've had yet!)

 

[proxy bump]

I didnt think id show properly until way later where I am a bigger woman and its my first pregnancy. But indeed my stomach started rounding out around fifteen weeks but I think the fact im five foot two play a big role. I dont get too many comments from other people since I usually either stay at home or work which my shirts are loose on me. But when looking at before and current photos its super obvious, lol
