Done before I'm sure, but when did you show with #3?

[corduroybear]

Am 6+3 with #3.

I'm slim (size 6-8) and had got a fairly flat stomach back after #2 prior to getting pregnant. When I do up my dressing gown now (thin material, not the bulky sort) I definitely seem to already stick out a little below the belt. I'm not sure though if that's just a lack of exercise: I normally work out lots and hard but haven't been able to manage anything even vaguely resembling what I class as a 'workout' since 4wks....

I'm due to go to a wedding in a few weeks when I'll be 9wks or so. I really really do not want people to know for loads of reason (thunder stealing, friend who recently lost a baby very traumatically etc etc).

Obviously none of you can tell me for sure, but based on experiences with babies 3 plus am I likely to have a proper baby bump by then? Should I plan a disguising sort of dress accordingly? If it's of relevance I wasn't showing by 12wks with #2 (well I thought I was but nobody guessed until 14wks apparently).

I think it's really variable- I'm 18 weeks with number 3 and still not really showing. Well I would know - there's a tiny rounding but not that would show in clothes.
I think if you were so fit beforehand it's unlikely you would be showing but everyone is different.
Could it be fluid retention/ constipation maybe?

About 14 weeks.

I thought I was showing pretty much straight away but nobody noticed (or said anything) till it was very obvious or I told them. I wore a floaty, bust gathered dress to a wedding when I was around 12weeks and it wasn't very obvious. My pregnancies were very close together so I had split tummy muscles so never really lost the slightly sticking out tummy.

I felt I was showing (and couldn't fit into quite a few clothes) at around 8/9 weeks. I don't think it was obvious enough for anyone to guess. I did wear loose style clothes until I was ready to announce it but def couldn't have kept it hidden past the 12 week scan.

I started showing virtually straight away, bout 6wks, my tummy just popped back out. Was having to try really hard to cover it up by 8wks as had previously lost weight.
But then I showed early with #2 as well, obviously have no stomach muscles to speak of.

I'm almost 9 weeks with my 3rd and it's comical how pot-bellied I am! Trying very hard to disguise it but I catch friends glancing at my tummy thinking 'hmm she's obviously overdone the bread lately!' I guess it's down to muscles 'remembering' what to do and generally being, well, a bit rubbish now!

I'm 9 weeks with number 3 and not showing at all (but have hyperemesis so am rapidly losing weight).

Ok - so chances are there may be something by then.

Am definitely a bit constipated - always a first tri thing for me - which probably doesn't help!!

I need to plan now since we're travelling for a week before the wedding, so I think a floaty dress may be in order, just in case!!

The second I peed on the stick!
