I'm currently 10 weeks and I see so many pictures of women with a lovely bump. I always thought it was 14/16 weeks mark.

It'd be great to hear your stories.

Ps - Any late December due date buddies around?

first baby here and 21 weeks, average/tall build. I looked like I'd just eaten all the pies til about 13 weeks, had a little bump forming noticeable on tight clothin at 14-15 weeks but only realy became a noticeable to people who don't know me at 18/19. now at 21 it's pretty obvious to most except the very unobservant!

That's always good to hear. I'm on the short side and a tummy on me so it's probably hidden under that.

12 week scan in a few weeks time which I'm looking forward to :)

Not until about 21/22 weeks for my first, just looked chubby until then!

I'm nearly 21 weeks and I still just look a bit chubby. However my tummy is getting rounder. It is linked to what I eat so I get bigger during the day.

I could have hidden it with careful clothing until about 22 weeks, but I had a mini bump from about 15 weeks. Have attached pics of both! This is my first, I've heard subsequent babies show much sooner.

I'm 5,2 and will be 15 weeks tomorrow, I still don't have any kind of a bump really. Just a sort of mini who ate all the pies gut I ate all the pies, they were delicious Not sure when it will pop but I'm happy for it to stay small for as long as possible!

I'm 5 foot 4 and coming up to 20 weeks and no real bump yet. In the morning I dont look pregnant and there's a small bump by the evening. You can see some photos on instagram - leanniefitness.
We get married in just under 6 weeks and I'm hoping I have a bump by then and i dont just look bloated!!

44PumpLane · 31/05/2016 17:22

I'm 5'5" and currently 10+5 with twins and I have a total tummy. But I feel like I just look bloated/fat as opposed to pregnant. It's only on my stomach though and I do think I'll have to buy maternity jeans soon- was out last night in skinny jeans and j was so uncomfortable round my stomach!

Danaust · 31/05/2016 17:37

It varies so much person to person and pregnancy to pregnancy. With my first i was around 28 weeks when I first got my bump( although it was on the small side). In my current twin pregnancy I popped last week at 22 weeks...

Tiggeryoubastard · 31/05/2016 17:39

5 foot six, was a size 10 very flat stomach, didn't show till about 25 weeks, even then I never grew that big, looked like half a football at 38 weeks. He was 7lb 9.

Always had a bit of a tummy on me but 8 weeks and nothing fits. Happened with all 3. People have just thought that I've been on the cake a bit too much, but ladies that have had kids have commented on the definite baby bump shape. I know most of it's bloating and not actual baby, but the shape is quite obvious. I'd like to have kept it quiet for a bit longer.

There's a December group in the antenatal threads section, join us. There seems to be a baby boom happening - there are over 100 of us!

1st baby, I didn't show until after 20 weeks.

This time, my bump properly popped on Monday, so 13 weeks. I've had a fat tummy that I've needed maternity jeans for a good month. Nothing like last time!

A December buddy would be great!!!

Congrats I'm due 27th of December 😵 I'm 10 weeks I've always had a bit of a belly but it's defiantly showing I think it's more bloating than anything it's hard to hide!

Dueindecember2016 · 31/05/2016 22:12

Yes please! I like to think I know what I'm doing but like most expecting 1st time mums I'm winging it!
