When did you feel your stomach was growing?

Hey! I'm 10+2, had a scan at 8wks and there was a strong heartbeat. I don't feel like I'm putting on weight in my stomach and wondered when people did? My previous pregnancy was so long ago I've forgotten! Getting paranoid that maybe nothing is happening as had a MMC two years ago. Thanks x

I only noticed a bump around 14 weeks but it was tiny and of really noticeable to me and OH.
It's not until the 3rd trimester that I've really 'popped'

My trousers were feeling tight around the time of my 12 week scan. I spoke at a conference just before it, and had to sneakily unzip my fly under the table Grin

Looking at my weekly progress photos I've been taking, I look like I'm getting a bump at around 14 weeks.

IMO any bump in the first trimester is usually just bloating. Your uterus doesn't pop up and out until your second trimester.

I'm now 25+4 and remember vividly the period from weeks 10-18 when it didn't feel like anything was happening!!
Up until 18 weeks it looked like I could have just had a big dinner 😂

I was bloated at first and then around 16-17 weeks I noticed that the bloat had gone and I had a little bump. Only me and my husband would notice x

Thanks ladies. I do feel fat and bloated but it's def wobbly fat and higher up than we're the bump should start Grin. Obv doesn't help that I'm mainly in leggings or comfy trousers as working from home. So not like putting jeans or dresses on and then feeling tighter. Thanks all x
