Bump with first pregnancy? When did you start showing?

I’m 16 weeks and only really notice a more curved round bump at the end of the day after eating! Just wondering what your ladies experiences are? I am a size 16/18 with a little bit of a belly on me anyway so maybe this is why. Xx

I'm a first time mum carrying twins and was reasonably trim before falling pregnant, and I couldn't hide it anymore from 15 weeks!

I’m 18+3 and last week I had a vvvv slightly round lower belly. This week it’s poking out and much higher. I’ve also been hit with horrendous heartburn around the exact same time it’s popped out - not sure this is a coincidence or a baby growth spurt!

I've been wondering this, im 16+5 with my first and around a size 10 pre-pregnancy and I defo have a bump now. It's not huge yet, but it's there.

First time mum, started showing same as my mum and nan at 8 weeks.
Now at 12 definitely cannot hide it at all

Hi 👋 and congratulations 💐🍰🥂
My first about 16-17 weeks the bump was round and unmistakeable and my second I just went POW at about ten weeks 🙂.

I'm a size 16/18 too and friends started to notice a bump around 20 weeks and then people I know less well started to notice around 22/23 weeks. Try not to worry 😊 it will come. Xx

I started around 15 weeks, but that awkward ‘is she tubby is she pregnant’ look. I’m 18+4 now and it’s not obviously rounded!
I would upload a picture but my tattoos are very outing!

ChrisPrattsFace · 08/04/2019 14:17

It’s NOW obvious I should say!

Mummyto2munchkins · 08/04/2019 14:18

I was a size 6/8 with my first, didn't start showing till I was 24 weeks.
Size 8 with my second and started showing at 16 weeks

Perhaps baby is just hiding :)

When I told colleagues at 23 weeks they couldn't believe it. I was still wearing all my normal clothes at that point.

I think my bump started to be noticeable at about 27 weeks.

Megan2018 · 08/04/2019 14:22

15/16 weeks it started to be obvious to me.
Now 17+4 with very definite bump. First DC.

It depends on your build though - I am short and I think that means less room to hide!

Tinekittie2 · 08/04/2019 14:45

Tall and size 10, people only started asking when I was due after 25 weeks. Everyone's different :)

Babycakes1989 · 08/04/2019 15:13

Thanks ladies I appreciate your comments I’m trying to chill out and not worry 😊 like you say everyone is so different not just with bumps but symptoms etc etc. This is mine at 16 weeks to the day yesterday - in the evening. I think it’s the start of a bump xx

About 22 weeks for me and was a small size 10 before. But I had bloating from about 11 weeks. Now 33 weeks and huge!
