    I was showing by 8 weeks and was in maternity pants by 12!!

    I was shocked but it was my third prg in 3 years and an IVF prg so you tend to be a bit bloated after a stim cycle (enlarged ovaries etc).

    I was heaps bigger this time, I felt HUGE! But he's a big boy so I blame him

    Pre-pregnancy I mainly had a flat stomach apart from when I had AF - then I would have bloating.

    I had bloating from about 4 weeks and 'popped' out at about 7-8 weeks. Its been growing ever since and is very noticeable. I don't believe mine is bloating as it is quite firm and cannot be sucked in at all.

    I have been trying to use my handbag and baggy tops to hide the bump as we have only told our parents.

    Could be twins but even then I have heard of multiples not showing till after 12 weeks+. Everyone is different I guess
