First Time mums...When did you start showing?

[Sharcaz]

When did you all start to get a bump?? I'm so excited for mine and just wondering what it'll feel like! We have a family wedding and I'll be 21 weeks - hoping I'll have a little bump to show off

Did your bump appear overnight like everyone says xxx

It depends on how good your stomach muscles are before hand and everyone's different of course. I didn't have a flat stomach beforehand but this is my bump at 15 weeks and 20 weeks

It also depends how tall you are. Taller people hide their bumps more than shorter people theirs more room for baby to stretch out. I'm 5 ft 6.5 and didn't start showing until well after 20 weeks and it looked just like bloat x

Scn - lovely bump there!! Growing quickly xx

Thanks Keely! Didn't know about that at all I'm 5'5 so hoping I'll show before 20 xx

I'm only 5'2" so not got much room lol

 

[kittykitchn]

I'm 5'3 and had a full term sized bump at 31 weeks, apparently due to being short and not having much space!

Looking back I guess I *really* started showing at about 25 weeks

But I felt very different long before that, I could see a difference by about 17 weeks.

I started showing with my first at 9 weeks! But the 1ns one I didn't start till I was about 16 weeks, however I'm
Much bigger at 37 weeks this time than I was last time

Kittykitchn your bump is so neat!!

wow jojo that's really early! Wish it was the same for everyone so I could expect hehe - but i guess it's all part of the excitement!

Thanks for all your replies ladies xxx

You should have something to show, this was me at 21w

I started to show at about 15 weeks. Now a day off 21 weeks and have to wear maternity trousers and tops shall we say!
Feel like I am huge now, so what is going to happen later on?!
My bump settles down a bit when I lie on my back, but standing it's unavoidable!

I was about 10-11 weeks when I got my wee bump by 16 weeks I had a proper bump

 

[xxSparklesxx]

So excited to get a bump xx

 

[mummywanabe]

Unfortunately I still have a bit of the first bump so I'm not sure what the second one will look like

Urgh, you should see me now. Xx

I thought I started showing at about 11 weeks but when I look at photos now there was nothing there! I think it was just because I was feeling so bloated and uncomfortable at that stage.
Looking back at my timeline, the first noticeable bump was at 14 weeks. Between weeks 21 and 23 I think I doubled in size and haven't slowed down since!!

 

[fairyprincess]

I had a bloat and then seemed to pop at about 14weeks, it's lovely when it's obvious you're preg lol x

 

[Maaaaaac]

My stomach has just expanded the last few days, 15 weeks, first baby, everyone's asking am I having twins! I feel huge. Im 4kg lighter from start of pregnancy as well. Makes no sense.

Awww yay!! Bet you're pleased to start showing?? The weight thing is strange but I think everyone's just so different, don't sorry unless your midwife worries xx
