When did your bump start showing?!

[kellyrichards]

Im currently 8+1 wks pregnant and curious as to when I️ will start showing??! I’m so inpatient!! Feels like I’ve been pregnant forever already with having terrible nausea and sickness and also the lovely thrush!

When did you lovely ladies start showing your first bump? :)

3 months with the first.

Around 3 weeks with the second!

I've definitely had a (very small) bump since 14 weeks even though everyone keeps telling me that you only show at 20 weeks with your first.
I'm very petite and have a particularly small waist, so I wonder if that made a difference? I haven't been able to wear my usual jeans or any tight clothing since 12 weeks. I'm now 18 weeks and have a clear bump ...although can still easily disguise it if I want to.

I'd say about 24 weeks the little bump became noticeable. A lot depends on clothes I think, if you wear clingy maternity tops you'll see a 'bump' much earlier than with regular / loose tops x

I'm 13 weeks and if someone who knows me saw me in tight clothes, they would definitely know I am pg. People who don't know me wouldn't necessarily clock that I am pg, especially if I am wearing looser fitting clothes.

I was a size 6/8 before I got pg though so nowhere for bump to hide.

I was around 24 weeks with my first. 16 weeks with my second and nothing yet. If you've got decent stomach muscles you won't show for a while - the baby is still tiny and low for ages so I think it's just when your stomach muscles stretch out. Or bloating in the early days I guess.

This is me at 17 weeks... Very obvious and has been since 12-13 weeks! Not actually gained any weight on the scales yet, but a really obvious bump!

I've been asked about 200 times if I'm sure there's only one in there!

I’m 15wks with first and no obvious bump, just a sort of firmness above my pubic bone and I can’t suck in my stomach any more. Other people wouldn’t be able to tell the difference

I started showing around 11 weeks which is quite ridiculous considering it's my "first". I say that in inverted commas due to the fact I have been pregnant twice before but experienced two early losses. I'm not sure if they count towards showing earlier but may be an explanation as to why. I'm now 19 weeks and very bumpy. It really does vary and can depend on so many factors!

I've taken a photo every month so I can see how bump grows and 16 weeks I had a rounded tum but then by 20 weeks it was definitely more of a bump. I'm 24 weeks now and there's no doubt it's a baby in there and not just cake.
