Totally normal, OP, with a first baby. I didn’t need to wear maternity stuff till much closer to 20 weeks with DC1. Different story for the second baby!

22 weeks before needed with first... 2nd went for scan in maternity trousers 😱

I’m a ftm and normally a size 10. I’ve only just started to notice a bump now at 21+4 weeks

I had no bump at all until 24 weeks, even then just looked bigger - not a nice round bump. At my 20 weeks scan I was amazed to see that there was even a baby in there! Most the bump happened (for me at least) after 30 weeks.

I didn't really have a bump until around 24 weeks and even then it's wasn't huge - I only seemed to balloon passed 30 weeks xx

Dollywilde · 12/08/2020 15:59

Perfectly normal! I shared a ‘bump’ picture on Insta when I was 20 weeks and I look back now and I’m like... what bump Grin

Really only started showing around the 23/24 week mark and grew massively after 30 weeks. Due date tomorrow and I’m now the size of a whale, so trust me... it does come!

CC12x · 12/08/2020 15:59

Yeah totally normal. Im 28 weeks and only felt that my bump is starting to show and its my second 😊

Floulou20 · 12/08/2020 16:01

FTM here too I'm 19+3 now and still no proper bump yet, I look like I've got a bit of a bloated tummy at the mo x

nasiisthebest · 12/08/2020 16:08

23 weeks and could still be mistaken for ibs bloat (which I also have when I eat triggering foods).

MonicaGellerHyphenBing · 12/08/2020 16:09

Very normal, you’re barely in the second trimester yet! I started to get a little bump at around 16 weeks and then it popped at 24 weeks. Second baby I popped at about 8 weeks 🙈

user1493413286 · 12/08/2020 16:10

I didn’t start showing until about 19-20 weeks with my first so please don’t worry

Shawla92 · 12/08/2020 16:12

I'm ftm 22+5 & have a slight bump plus lockdown chub 😂 make the most of fitting in your clothes whilst you still can!

peachypetite · 12/08/2020 16:25

I was still in my jeans at 12! Didn’t start showing until 18, even that wasn’t a bump, just felt I looked pregnant as opposed to fat.

AlphaDalpha · 12/08/2020 16:28

19 weeks for my second, whilst on holiday I realised nothing that I had packed fit me anymore!

Jmommy · 12/08/2020 20:32

I started showing at about 18 weeks with my first, but properly only after 23-24 or so weeks. I remember well how I also eagerly waited for my bump to appear. For my second pregnancy I would actually wish it would take as long as possible before the bump appears. Living with a bump isn’t all that convenient after all Grin

Laurenk474 · 12/08/2020 20:40

I was pregnant with twins and didn't show until I was 23 weeks. Then it just ballooned from there lol.

SendHelp30 · 12/08/2020 20:41

About 24/25weeks with 1st, same with 2nd and about 20 weeks with 3rd.

1990fran · 12/08/2020 22:19

Thank you ladies, I feel much more reassured, I think googling stuff and comparing bumps isnt the best thing! Need to try and relax a bit, as my last two scans it was measuring fine, wish i could stop worrying all the time Grin

For my first I was over 6 months before my bump popped out
