My first i didnt really start showing until about 12wks, 2nd i popped at about 10wks but this one i have looked REALLY bloated since about 7wks!! my mums worried its twins lol
Yeah, when I went to see my family at xmas I wanted to wait to tell them till into the second tri for the usual reasons - but it was so blindingly obvious I didn't stand a chance of hiding it. I was almost at the second anyway so it wasnt so hard, but I had been "feeling" the bump when I lay on my stomach for a few weeks before that.
I know! I think I might be getting somewhere with these daily contractions. Even the small ones are really hurting! Not waking up DH just yet though. Will time them for a while first I think.
That's always good news! When your labour properly starts your cervix will be ready so there'll be less work to do! When I had DD she hadn't even decended properly and my cervix was rock solid shut lol. Do you think you may actually be in labour or are they BH?
Sadly, I cant tell pre-labour from established labour anymore. I just hoping that if nothing else I can get this lot to bite. I thought I lost a bit of plug before but wasnt 100% sure on that either because I had a lot of CM all the way through... then prelabour started and it stopped.. My cervix has been soft and 50% effaced (doc wasnt sure on that and not so sure on dilation because she couldnt reach it properly... welcome to the club honey - I am making jackets) for a little while now, which is probably why the CM stopped. Not really sure again.
Sheesh, you'd think I'd be an old hand at this by now!
I am loving reading your stories, I cannot remember when i showed with my first child, as it was almost 10 years ago but I seem to recall around the 14 -16 weeks. I am a larger person so it sucks for me because I already have the extra padding and it is going to take me a long time to show, I wasn't so big 10 years ago with my first, heck I was 19 !!! But now i would give anything to be slim to watch my baby belly poke out!! It will come soon enough though and besides, I know that I am pregnant, bub reminds me every time I even contemplate eating !! Yay for ALL DAY SICKNES!!! Not!!
