    Hi All,

    I found that I didn't really start to grow a proper bump until I hit 20 weeks - and now at 25 weeks there is no mistaking I'm pregnant. Sometimes it just takes a bit longer depending on your body shape. I am reasonably tall, but a size 10 normally and I don't think that I looked pregnant at all before 20 weeks.

    Hope you all get that lovely baby bump soon!

    I'm currently 26 weeks and was just told by my boss that she thinks I only just now look really pregnant whereas before it could have been a fat day! Being as I'm normally a size 10 with a very flat stomach this was a little disconcerting!!

    Also, my younger sister is 30 weeks pregnant now so I get compared to her ALL the time. Particularly since she has been much bigger the whole way through the pregnancy. It actually got to the point that my hubby told my mum that all is fine, baby is perfectly fine and healthy I just don't show as much!

    And before my 20 week scan I was VERY anxious about it - hence the freak out I had when I finally arrive to have it and the midwife centre had mucked up my booking so they had nothing for me and had to squeeze me in 4 hours later. Since then they have managed to muck up 3 more of my appointments even when I've confirmed them!

    So all of your reactions are completely normal!

    I don't really feel pg either, but other times I feel as if I am 24 months pg, but I am only in the early stages of my 2nd trimester, Im 13 wees today. i dont think that I will show much as I am over weight ( my fault), but am watching what I am eating. When I was ppg with my first child, I was showing at 3 months, and I to didnt know what the little flutters were, but I was sure they were the first time the baby was moving.. Good luck with all your prgnancies, and as someone said earlier... rest up now cos you wont have time to later.
