I'm between 14 & 15 weeks & look about 6 months already!! I'm normally a 12 & worry how huge I'm going to be! I feel constantly baloated, but just wondered how big you lovely ladies are / were at this stage?
thanks

thank you so much for all your replies - I am pleased to say the baloating has subsided and I'm now more the shape i'd expect. I'm putting tha panic down to hormones!!

I'm 11 weeks with first pregnancy and DH already thinks he can see a slight bump. One of my friends commented at the weekend that I was looking a bit pregnant. I've also put on about 6 pounds as not doing any cardio exercise and eating like a maniac. I've been worrying about 'showing' early, though I have to say I think it's mainly extra pounds around the middle at the moment and not really baby. I'm usually a size ten and my jeans are already tight. Am spending a fortune on long tops! I expect I'd look roughly the same if I wasn't pregnant and had spent two months stuffing my face in the way I have. I am usually quite careful about what I eat but have spent the last two months like a slavering monster, drooling outside Pret till I get my feed. It's been quite terrifying.

Thankfully my appetite is calming down a litte bit so I'm hoping that the early weight gain with balance out.

Great thread, I think I showed at 12weeks but probably not obvious to everyone. 16weeks now and I am having to buy more stretchy/roomy clothes (refuse to buy pregnancy clothes until I get really big) although I am sure I could be easily mistaken for someone who pigged out on cakes for 4months. Still awaiting that lovely rounded baby bump!

I am 10 weeks tomorrow and although quite petite (size 10), have always managed to look preggers after a big roast/meal. So I am finding that I wake up fairly flat stomached, and by about 3pm start to fill out. By the evening I could be mistaken for 4 months gone.

Saying that, because i've always looked preggers even when I wasn't, I 'think' that ppl at work aren't too suspiscious.

Need to cut down on carbs though as it's simply indulgent and I'll end up with a monumental job ahead of me post-birth!

My clothes got tight a few weeks ago but I have probably only just started to look more rounded since about 11/12 weeks. I'm not exactly skinny though so whether strangers would see it yet (13 weeks at the mo) I'm not sure
