am 18 weeks and my bump has seemed to materialise in the last week.

Dropping dd off at nursery on Tuesday my good friend (whom I had met for coffee and chat the previous Friday) said - 'Ooo, look - You've finally got a bump'.

however, if I stand up straight and hold stomach 'in' (ie - get my posture correct ) - it isn't overly obvious.

I was pretty much the same with dd too.

I wanted to eat constantly at first and so I put on weight straight away, but could actually see a small bump at 11 and a bit weeks, at 12 and a bit weeks admittedly I hadn't really been looking for a bump for a few days, but I put my clothes on and had a bump, then put my fitted coat on and could really see it. i've never had a big tummy before, even though my weight has fluctuated from size 18-size 10 in the past. I've gone up to a size 14 whilst pregnant (still a 12 in some things) and people have commented on my bump all week (im 13 weeks now). My DP noticed first, then my mum, then sister, then DPs auntie, and since then the people I work with have even noticed amongst other people.

I must be one of the oh-so-lucky big bump club

My 1st child started showing at around the 20 week mark, but I am pregnant with my 2nd and started to show at 5 weeks!

There is no common sense to it, but the muscles are shot to pieces by your second child. Will def be doing ab exercises after this second and final baby arrives LOL

I looked chubby quite quickly, but last week really started to look like a bump - will be 17 weeks fri. Have been paranoid that am showing too early as my mate is tiny at same stage, but it seems from reading this that everyone's different, so will stop fretting.

I'm only 7+4 and already getting funny looks from some people (I normally have a quite flat tummy) and even had nearly 4 year old mindee (I'm a childminder) say 'oh...you have a baby in there' (I'm like...errr....please don't tell mummy and daddy you think that! ). I stopped being able to close my jeans a couple of weeks ago...in fact a few weeks ago. This happened with ds aswell, shape completely changed VERY early on. For now I know it's just bloating etc. but someone pointed out today that even my tits look bigger With ds I was just fat in the end, not proper pregnant looking - I want a nice neat bump this time but with the amount I'm eating, think I'll be the same again unless I'm careful!

With my first people noticed at about 15 weeks, my second at about 12 weeks, however, this PG is my third and at 6 weeks I have had a male work colleague ask me if i'm pregnant, and i was in my nice clothes and high heels on and was breathing in!!!!!! I am very concerned that it may be twins as there are twins and triplets in the family, plus i'm older and my hcg levels are apparently quite high (which explains why I feel so crap and have done sine before 5 weeks!)

I started to show at 12 weeks with DD and 10 weeks with DS.

My mw told me that I probably started to show so early because of the 2 m/c that I had prior to DD.
