Oh I want to know this too! I can't wait for mine

Chienrouge · 23/03/2018 06:36

About 22 weeks with my first, 18 weeks with my second I think.

Chienrouge · 23/03/2018 06:37

Definitely didn’t have a bump at my 20 week scan with my first and was still wearing my non maternity skinny jeans!

Nixen · 23/03/2018 06:38

I’m waiting for this too! 17 weeks today and you wouldn’t know it from looking at me!

Emma198 · 23/03/2018 06:41

The rate I'm eating at I'll have a huge bump soon but none of it will be baby Grin I'm starving all the time

Just over 31 weeks and starting to appear now. With my I swear I had a bump by 12 weeks Grin

Deliverytostore · 23/03/2018 07:05

My first!

MaverickSnoopy · 23/03/2018 07:41

19 weeks with my first but wasn't really noticeable until about 24 weeks. 8 weeks with my second although more noticeable by about 10 weeks. This time 6 weeks! Now 11 weeks and struggling to hide it.

NewSense · 23/03/2018 07:46

First time round of have been 6-7 months before anyone could tell I was pregnant.

I'm about 12 weeks into this pregnancy, and already have a little bump. Not noticeable under a jumper yet, I think, but when I'm naked there's no doubting it's there!

I was hoping I'd be as small this time round - it was an easy ride, being tiny last time! I'm dreading feeling enormous!

hotchocolate86 · 23/03/2018 08:34

I have a little bump already. I’m 11+4. This is my third though so maybe that’s why. I’m expecting to be massive at this rate!

RoryHatesCoffee · 23/03/2018 08:57

22/23 weeks I think.

Minkies13 · 23/03/2018 12:15

I first noticed it on myself by around 16 weeks, but no one else could see it. I definitely have a small bump now at 18+3 but, again, no one can really tell with all the layers I wear.

I'm short, with a short torso, so I assume I will be massive in no time at all

FloydOnThePull · 23/03/2018 14:37

Mine appeared overnight at about 22 weeks, i went to my 20 week scan in my normal skinny jeans (first baby). I went from nothing to very obviously pregnant seemingly in minutes.

doodlejump1980 · 23/03/2018 14:40

I had a bump at 14 weeks, but I had twins so ended up with a 55” waist in the end...

gryffen · 23/03/2018 14:42

22 weeks with first and this time round about 16 weeks and I'm just shy 20 weeks now and it's all under the boobs bump.

brogueish · 23/03/2018 14:45

I definitely look pregnant now (29 weeks!), but up until a few weeks ago I just looked a bit heavier. This is my first.

0310Star · 23/03/2018 15:59

I am very obviously pregnant at 23 weeks, have been for a good 6/8 weeks id say and in maternity wear since about 12 weeks. I seemed to have gone straight from bloat to baby.
This is my first, and people keep telling me how she's going to be huge as I'm so massive!

NelleB · 23/03/2018 18:23

Does a hump count at 14 weeks, I have a small hump. No bump yet

LisaSimpsonsbff · 23/03/2018 18:26

Having my first - first time someone who didn't already know asked if I was pregnant was 18 weeks, but that was a v small bump so I thought they were brave/foolish! Nearly 24 weeks now and people comment on it all the time (and, annoyingly, go on about 'how big' I am for five months) so v obvious now.

EL332 · 23/03/2018 18:49

I'm just so excited to have a bump... feeling really worried about how long it will take for a bump to show as I'm a curvy girl and carry all my weight on my stomach!

I defo have a little bump at 13 weeks and it's my first... But probably mostly bloating. Only noticeable when naked or wearing a tight vest top.

EL332 · 23/03/2018 19:04

How early did you buy/start wearing maternity clothes? 😘

OP posts:
PinkAvocado · 23/03/2018 19:06

20 weeks ish both times. I’m 37 weeks now and still not in maternity clothes as I just do my trousers up under my massive but high bump. Saved a fortune I reckon Grin

Chienrouge · 23/03/2018 19:09

When my bump appeared, so about 23-24 weeks.
Earlier with DD2 because I remembered how comfortable maternity jeans are Grin

Peanut91 · 23/03/2018 20:01

@EL332 I have just bought maternity clothes and I am 11+1. I was getting so uncomfortable in my normal clothes. I worried that it is too early but the maternity clothes are so comfy I know it was the right choice!
