When did your waist thicken?

[Rtmhwales]

I’m thirteen weeks and only today when I bumped my abdomen realized it’s absolutely solid instead of squishy. For some reason it’s only just occurred to me it’s going to grow!

When did yours thicken and how soon after did you start to show?

Mine isn’t close to showing yet, just thick, but I’m tiny (size 2) so I expect it might be sooner than later.

I looked ridiculous by fifteen weeks and had to go into maternity gear soon after.

I was very tiny and assumed I'd look huge early on due to this. But it wasn't until 20 weeks+ that people started noticing I was pregnant. My bump both time was quite neat and very low down, I still had a waist and looked normal from behind until I gave birth (remembering the time a guy drove past wolf whistling me, got past and looked back then went 'Oh...' in a disappointed voice...)
