13w with second baby. I didn't get a bump until about 22w with DC1 so not expecting one, BUT when I was lying down flat when I first woke up in the morning so needing a wee I could feel a little bump at 12-13w, this time nothing...??

Anyone else in the same situation? Had the scan a little while ago as routine everything was fine but I worry Confused

Only just got one at 19 weeks. It appeared almost overnight and I look about 6 months 🤣

My baby was back to back, I didn't have a bump at all until 20 weeks and it wasn't noticeable in clothes (granted I'm not into really fitted clothes, but jeans and a tshirt/work uniform/dresses) until I was about 28 weeks. It was very neat until right near the end, then I looked like a fat, hot mess Grin

I was 20 weeks with dc5 before I could see an actual bump rather than just looking like I'd put on a few lbs, closer to 25 weeks when it was noticeable to everyone else. I've never had big bumps with any of mine. I'm slim (size 10) but have a long torso which is what I think helps. It'll come & then you'll be cursing not being able to see your feet Grin

I’m 12 weeks and I’ve had a ‘lay down morning wee bump’ for about a week.

I love it.

When I stand up it’s just pure bloat still though.

I'm 14 weeks with number 2, I have a bit if a bump but its all excess fluid and I'm much fatter this time round Grin

justvent has it - the ‘lay down morning wee bump', I am not expecting and actually don't really want a bump that I can see standing up yet, hoping not until after the 20w scan but I would to know myself that baby is growing and fine and feel them even if it is once a day.

Like I said my first baby I noticed a bump at 22w but no one else noticed it until about 27w so not looking for a visible bump just something to feel myself.

Can you feel anything when you lay down?
Have you had your 12 week scan?

Fififiesta · 12/06/2018 22:02

No I can't feel anything when I lay down. Had scan at 12w, there was a baby for sure!
