When did everyone start showing or noticing that they started to have a bump?

About 19 weeks I think!

15 weeks (and I'm tall - and its my first - I'm 'supposed' to show later! )

I think between 4-5 months but didn't have a 'typical' bump that anyone would easily notice until about 6 months. I prob measured slightly small throughout the pregnancy (although ended up having a big baby!)

Not until 25 weeks, everyone was surprised when I gave birth 2 weeks late because I didn't look full term

I measured fine but i'm 6ft tall so didn't look like I had a full sized bump IYKWIM

I've had a bump for about 2 weeks though is definitely more pronounced now at 16 weeks today. It's my first, I'm 5'4 and my stomach was the only slim bit of me!

NoArmaniNoPunani · 22/06/2015 06:44

I'm already showing at 13 weeks

I'm tall (5'10") and one has sort of appeared in the last week (20 weeks) but to anyone who doesn't know me, I don't look pregnant yet. I'm told at my height it could be up to 25 weeks before I really show.

I started to show at 15 weeks but it looked more like i'd eaten all the pies. I'm 19 weeks now and have a fairly big bump :) although I still get people saying "oh, i just wasnt sure if you were... Y'know... I get it wrong sometimes"... Hmm

I'm 5'4, my first, was quite slim - not skinny - before becoming pregnant :)

With my dd I didn't show until after 20 weeks and not 'properly' until about 25 weeks but I am tall.
This time however I've been wearing maternity trousers for a good few weeks- so getting bigger from 10 weeks I'm now 15 weeks could get away with being chubby for another couple weeks max I'm showing so early this time!

I had a bloat bump from about 3 weeks lol. My real bump became noticeable to DH and I at about 14 weeks and it was obvious to other people by about 22.

tinyme135 · 22/06/2015 07:53

I've got the bloated bump but when I look closely I can see a small firm bump forming just above my hip bones and I'm only 11 weeks (well I think I am till I go for my scan) so I wanted to see if everyone else was the same.

With my first 12 weeks - very round little bump.

Now with second - friends noticed at 10 weeks. I'm v slim though. I hate that I can't hide it

tinyme135 · 22/06/2015 08:02

So I'm not going mad with seeing a little bump at 11 weeks. This is my first so very clueless haha

I started having a tiny wee bump at 15 weeks. I could tell it was there but it wasn't obvious to anyone else. I'm now 20 weeks and I have a definite bump. Not huge, but definitely there (my trousers don't fit anymore and some of my blouses and tops are too tight).

First pregnancy, 15/16 weeks.
Second, five weeks...!
