Hello xx

Not sure why and most people are so surprised, but I am 8 weeks and have got quite a bump, it is very noticeable

I started getting a bump at about 5/6 weeks, very strange, wondering if it is because this is my 3rd and my tummy muscles are shot to pieces lol

Anyone know if this is normal??

[devotion]

5 months with first, 4 mths with 2nd and looking forward to seeing third

try not to compare though, we're all different and you can end up driving yourself crazy comparing everything.

I have tosay also that at about 6-8 weeks with my 2nd pregnancy i started to show but it just turned out i was a bit bloated and went down after a week or so.

10 weeks i was really obvious by 4 mths i looked full term everyone used to say not long now 5 mths and the shock on there faces lol

[Trikken]

cant remember with first but with this one Im beginning to get a bump at 16 weeks. Got told i looked like i've been eating too many biscuits on monday when I was out grocery shopping.

[shellmc]

This is my first baby i started to show properly at 18 and half weeks!!! Untill then i used to walk around sticking my tummy out to make it look noticable, now ya cant miss it. 40 weeks today and feeling huge!! LOL xx

[Trikken]

on a different note I do remember when I was feeling really big and was 5 days overdue with ds and someone came up to me and dh and said "where's this baby then?" thinking id had it and seemed suprised when i said it was still in my belly.

[oopsacoconut]

I was 32 weeks and people still didn't notice most of the time - so I resorted to wearing tight tops but by 36 weeks there was no doubt I was about to pop!

[pippa251]

24 weeks - but I am huge now and am 32 + 5

[Cies]

Ohh, this is reassuring! I'm 15 weeks with my first and for some reason had thought I'd have a bump by now. All I have is my same belly (size 14) but solid not flabby. So I look no different to normal.

[pippa251]

Also don't worry when people comment on your lack of bump- I get it all the time in the gym changing room people telling me
'Oh I was huge at your stage!'
'aren't you neat!'

Your body will show and change when it's ready and people often look back and they may not remember accuratley- you always think you're bigger than you are- proven to me when I saw photos of my mate who had her last child 3 years ago- she was tiny!

[YanknCock]

It only happened two days ago (26 weeks). But I'm a very big apple-shaped person to begin with. Didn't need different clothes at all (and still don't really!). Very suddenly this week I got a round bump under my boobs and people have started to realise I'm not just fat, I'm pregnant (and fat).

[Baisey]

I was tiny before I had my DS and I also had all the "arnt you neat/tiny/miniscule" comments, I was still in my same work trousers right upto 8 months. This was 3 years ago.
Im now pregnant again (13 weeks tomorrow!) im loving being able to not have to hold my flabby belly in lol. But ive had alot of "is it twins" comments I just say "neh its galaxy chocolate and chinese takeaways" Jeans are getting a bit tight now so I have a nice excuse to go shopping!

[Deeeja]

At around 6 months with first, but I was athletic and had super strong stomach muscles.
With 2nd, at 4 months, same with 3rd. Difficult to tell with this one, cos still have some weight with 3rd, so just kind of looked a bit tubby as usual until 4 months, but now at 5 months look almost full-term. Still misjudging it though, got stuck in tight space behind chair yesterday .

[Flo23]

First time, around 18 weeks. Second time maybe around 14 weeks. Third and final time am just looking fatter at 8 weeks...

[mrsdisorganised]

This is my 5th and I'm 17 weeks, finally beginning to get a bump rather than the just a bit overweight tummy!

[misssese]

im 16 weeks and feel massive although everyone says you cant tell and most of my non pregnant friends tummy are bigger than mine!my tummy is usually quite flat so it feels big to me!iv been really worried about putting weight on, does anyone else feel the same?

[mrsdisorganised]

If you eat sensibly you won't put much on, I snack on dried fruit and nuts and make sure I drink plenty of water. The added weight used to worry me but tbh lifes too short and if you're that bothered you'll sort it out with exercise after baby comes, usually takes me about a year to feel like 'me' again! Don't worry

[misssese]

I went to the doc today and found iv actually lost weight since the start of my pregnancy but i have had a stomach bug. you are right about not worrying i think when i get further on and people can tell im pregnant not fat il be happier!!!

[Baisey]

anniemac thats so not fair, you got offered seats on public transport? I thought it was an urban myth!

[Stokey]

I'm 17 weeks and started really showing over the last week - pple who didn;t know at work have clocked on. But i'm quite small - size 6/8 with flat tummy before hand - and am wearing my normal clothes which are now looking kinda stretched so think its time to got shopping!
