    Last pg I didn't pop until nearly 20 weeks, although my waist had considerably thickened by then.

    This time my waist started expanding quite early - about 8 or 9 weeks, and depending on what I wear now (at 13 weeks) you can sort of tell I am pg.

    As mine was IVF I showed very early due to the bloating from the hormones, i am 13 weeks now and I have a pretty big belly, and I am pretty fit and of middle weight.

    I agree, At 13 weeks you can feel a very tight area, from a little more than a inch under your belly button to your pubic bone. I think the only way I am noticable is from all the bloating.

    I think in general you dont start to show to others till after 20 weeks.(Thats about the time people send us wedding invites, and I cant find suitable clothes to wear.lol. Thats happened a couple of times now.)

    I am 5 weeks and have bab bloating, so It looks like I am much further along, luckily the baby doll type tops a in still so I can wear them and no one know, (well hopefuly, don't want to tell anyone just yet).

    Can't remember with the other two, but I wasn't hungry and only ate small bits of fruit, where this time I am always hungry and can't stop eating, that could be another reason, esp salty foods, that can't help the bloating I suppose.

    Hi Daniellabella

    I started noticing a difference at about 9 weeks but I did have swelling which started at about 5 weeks which made some of my pants uncomfortable. I dont think I was showing though, just swollen with fluid IYKWIM. I'm now 20 weeks and people who dont know me can't even tell I'm pregnant! Everyone comments on how timy my tummy is (I feel like it is huge).
