When did you start to show

[Twims]

Just wondering when you started to show with your multiple pregnancy?

About 11 weeks - was my 1st pregnancy & remember saying to my sister "I'm showing already" and her telling me it was wishful thinking or that I had been pigging out too much. Found out it was twins about 3 days later! Incidentally I dreamt I was having twins before I knew. That happen to anyone else?

really early

I had a pot belly from really quite early on (maybe 9 weeks?) Was more noticeable as I was really slim then (sigh). We kept on joking I must be having twins and my mum kept telling me I must have my dates wrong! Didn't have any twin dreams but did have a feeling and so did DH - and my Dad predicted twins even tho no twins in family. First scan was still a real shocker tho!! When I went public with the pregnancy and the twin news I kept getting told my bump was tiny tho which made me really paranoid (until 3rd trimester when I was a giant balloon on two skinny little chicken legs. Suddenly the 'you're so small to be having twins' comments stopped although I did get plenty of gasps of horror!)

I didn't start showing til about 15 weeks, and even at 32 weeks my consultant said he wouldn't believe that I was having twins if he hadn't seen the scans with his own eyes. They were tiny though and had IUGR, though they're now average build and fine.

I remember being totally shocked when we found out it was twins, though also strangely relieved. It was a planned pregnancy but I'd felt so ill and tired for about a month and thought I must've been a complete wimp as morning sickness didn't make anyone else feel this bad! Then when I found out that morning sickness can be twice as bad with twins it all made sense...

I think I started to really show around week 12. I am not too skinny and had plenty of (2 sizes up) large clothes from my prev weight loss attempt. That hid the belly for a while. But At week 16 nothing fit at all despite all the large clothes, pants etc. By week 22 I was in full pregnancy gear. This is my first though so I guess stomach held well for a while.

By about week 12!! Definitely a bump there when I was scanned. I didn't realise that was unusual as my fiorst pregnancy, got a bit of a shock when she said 'do you see what i see? there's 2 in there!'

I was having to wear maternity trousers at 6 weeks. I found out I was having twins at 8 weeks.

I started getting offered seats on the tube at 14 weeks, which may have been due to what I was wearing (tight clothes, rather than a bikini I add...) but I could tell I had rounded stomach from about 12 weeks.

Interestingly, I went to a christening at 10 weeks before we'd announced the pregnancy and two people asked my friend whether I was pregnant as I had a slight tummy (I was very slim and toned). She of course said "No way, she'd have told me!" which was very useful in prolonging our secret.

Was fairly skinny pre twins and when I got pregnant with them I had a bit of a tummy at about 8 weeks and was shopping for maternity trousers by 10! It was such a blessed relief to put those trousers on!

Should really have guessed that something was up when I went for my 12 week scan in maternity clothes, but very few of my friends had had babies at that time so I just naively presumed it was normal!

My DH kept saying "I bet its twins" even though there were no twins in either family - he was pretty sure. I didn't suspect at all.

I've always been quite 'rounded' and I have just started showing this week (15 weeks) with my twins, in first pregnancy. Even now I am still wearing my jeans (with top button undone now) and in some clothes, it's not really noticable. My friend at work who is 6 weeks ahead of me with twins also started showing about about 15 weeks but is pretty big now though so I guess I'll catch up quickly. I had no idea I had twins in there, although very early on when my pregancy book was telling me my uterus was still in pelvis at that stage, I could definitely feel it above my pelvic bone.

Seven weeks! My waist thickened and my tummy stuck out very early. My breast became large quite quickly too.
