[mybabylove]

Im 14 weeks & really not showing at all.
In the evenings you acn kind of see a tiny bump aftre i eat.

when did you start to show?

[Melbournemumma]

Hey mbl,

I was about 15w when I got a bump I could see, but for others I really didn't start popping out till about 19-20w. If it's your first baby it's not really till a little later that you start to show.

Soon you'll have the nice little baby bump they makes it so much more real.

With DD1 I 'popped' at 17 weeks, with DD2 I was 14 weeks and with DD3 I was about 10 weeks or less.

[Pandora]

I depends who you ask.
I noticed i'd popped at 18 weeks with this bub, was earlier with DS.

According to my family Im huge and must be expecting triplets, yet this morning at the kinder orientaiton, i waled in, it was standing room only, then another woman (who i found out was 20 weeks pg, Im 26w) walked in and people leapt up to offer her their chair. Maybe I just look fat

[sloane]

i've noticed some decent expansion in the last couple of weeks pants had been getting tighter from about 13 weeks but it's only recently that i've really noticed some changes.

Don't stress MyBabyLove - if this is your first, it is really common not to show for awhile, because your stomach muscles are unstretched and great at holding everything in place. I remember with my first I didn't really pop til after 20 weeks. Everyone is different some people get a bump really early, others really late. Especially if you're tall.

This is my first and didn't show till around 19 weeks, although I was carrying a bit due to AC treatment, well that's my excuse anyway

[childondaway]

This is my first and Im 18 wks and have a litle bump, I think it depends what I wear. I was wearing a summer dress and a friend made a comment that I had popped out! When I wear tracksuit pants and t.shirt, I don't think it is as noticeable.

I starting noticing clothes getting too tight around my waist (couldn't do them up) at about 8 wks though.

[ss_storm]

Don't worry, it will happen. Or at least I keep telling myself that! I now have a bump that I can notice, even if I'm wearing "normal" clothes, and after dinner it's always slightly bigger! But in my normal work clothes, wearing a shirt that isn't 'firm fitting' the average person wouldn't be able to tell, can only see I have a bump if I'm wearing a shirt that isn't loose..even then it probably doesn't look like a baby bump at all! Keep telling myself that I will start to grow out...soon...lol

[tattoo_mama]

im almost 27 weeks and most people still dont think im preg, and those that do notice think that im about 3 or 4 months, not 6! i didnt start to show at all until 20 weeks but i did lose close to 5kgs with morning sickness, ive only just got back up to my pre pg weight. i still wear my size 10 pants just with the button undone

[Maybebabie]

I am 19wks with my second and somedays i look preg and somedays i don't. My belly does tend to look a lot bigger at night. I find if i wear a preg top i look preg, if i wear a normal top i look like i ate too much lunch but not necessarily preg.

With my 1st my I had a growth spurt from 20-26 weeks. At 20wks it was still maybe she is maybe she isn't, but by the time i got to 26weeks it was like WHOA she's so preg.

That being said some people were suprised to find out i was preg/how far a long i was the weekend before i gave birth & i was 34 weeks (or maybe they were just being really polite)

[~Hestia~]

I'm jealous of all those who popped out I couldn't do up my pants from about 5 or 6 weeks & have just got slowly bigger as time as gone on. I feel like I've missed out

[angelaartsstudent]

25 weeks here and not looking pregnant. Just fat...but I was overweight to start with so no one thinks I'm pregnant. Haven't put on any weight yet either but am wearing maternity tops and pants just for the extra length in the torso (to go over my baby belly/flab) mainly.

I finally had to stop wearing my jeans at 21 weeks because it was uncomfortable to have the button digging into my uterus.

Different strokes for different folks I guess...I have heard that a first pregnancy doesn't show as much as a second....is this true?

[Nadine]

With DD I was about 16wks when it was obvious to strnagers I was pregnant.

This time around I would say it's obvious now (I am 13wks).

[M22]

with ds- 24 weeks
with DD ( now) just look fat- unless you know i am prego

[Rhia]

Im 15 weeks today and I just look fat. From the outside it looks like I am just gaining weight..my belly is pointing out but not in a 'pregnant' way IYKWIM. that probably sounds really weird

[loulabelle]

With my DS, I didn't really have a bump until about 20 weeks.This time I'm starting to get one now, people I know can tell but to strangers, I just look fat.

[SophieRose]

Well i'm either showing, or i'm getting slightly fatter at the bottom of my tummy and out the front. One of the two...
I have put on two kilos in the past few weeks (after losing five in the first trimester) so for all i know, it could just be fat. Haha
