When was your last period?
Bumps vary from person to person.

MrsGsnow18 · 14/12/2016 18:24

There's really no way to tell just by your bump. Everyone starts to show at different t times/feels movement at different times.
If you can't go by your last period then it's prob better to just wait for the scan they will go by the baby's measurements. Congratulations!

Chloeross96 · 14/12/2016 18:34

My last period was back in October

My last period was beginning of oct and I am just gone 10 weeks.

I definitely have a bit of a tummy down low but it's changing depending on bloating. I can puff out to make myself look ready to pop but then so can my DH!

Chloeross96 · 14/12/2016 18:48

My last period was 21st Sept so I've just turned 12 weeks, have quite a big bump because its my second but with my first was flat as a pancake at this stage! Wait for your dating scan chick x

Yesitsmeagain · 15/12/2016 08:34

With my first I didn't have a bump like yours until 20 weeks.

With the 2nd it was more like 12 weeks - I was convinced it was twins! (It wasn't)

Congratulations!

Chloeross96 · 15/12/2016 12:13

Oh god really? I'm very nervous because this is my first time I'm excited and nervous at the same time I've got my scan next Thursday my mate was saying the same about twins running in my family and they do I'm just very nervous with this because I'm new to all of this

Better big than small!!! I'm sure you're fine.

Do you know yourself how far gone you are?

BertieBotts · 18/12/2016 20:25

9th October would make you 10 weeks today. But period dating can be inaccurate - don't worry! I'm sure the scan technician will be able to tell you a more accurate date.

BertieBotts · 18/12/2016 20:29

Oh hang on, sorry, you think it was the 9th you conceived. So yes you would be about 12-13 weeks, most likely.

BertieBotts · 18/12/2016 20:31

Is 96 your birth date (sorry being nosy!) I was 20 when I had my first, it is really daunting, but it will be okay, you'll be fine. I really liked the book "The rough guide to pregnancy and birth" by Kaz Cooke, it wasn't as preachy as some of the other books and I really liked the tone.

thecatsarecrazy · 18/12/2016 20:35

Have you tried an online calculator

Chloeross96 · 19/12/2016 14:49

Hello thanks for the support everyone yeah my birth date is 96 it's fine don't worry about it and yeah it was the 9th it happened I haven't had a period since the end of sept and yeah I've tried that and yeah that's true it's better being big than small I'm just nervous for my scan on Thursday🙈

sorry not really sure what you are asking?

thecatsarecrazy · 20/12/2016 08:11

They will be able to give a fairly accurate due date when you have scan. I conceived my first son after a m.c so didn't have a period. His due date was 20th Feb I had him on 22nd. With my pregnancy now due date is 31st Jan and that's about right based on when baby was conceived if I went by period it would be a few days later.

Chloeross96 · 21/12/2016 01:04

Thankyou for letting me know I'm just very nervous with getting my scan as it's my first time falling pregnant I'm just nervous at the least little thing my mum told me to stop worrying but knowing me I just get scared🙈

Yesitsmeagain · 21/12/2016 22:02

Chloe what exactly are you nervous about?

You need to try and calm down. Being stressed out isn't going to help.

You can tell your baby is growing. That's good!

Chloeross96 · 22/12/2016 15:13

I will stay calm now I've seen my midwife she said I'm fine I've to see her in a few weeks I've got a scan on the 10th Jan
