Hello lady's,
I was wondering what week your bumps started showing? Thought it would be interesting

First pregnancy - there was a hint of a bump at about 12-14 weeks. I went on to measure small (30 weeks at 40 weeks!) and was sent for growth scans which were all fine.

Second pregnancy - I'm now 10 weeks and can see a hint of a bump, similar to where I was at 12-14 weeks last time. It'll be interesting to see how I measure towards the end!

Should have said, bump was noticeable to others at 18 weeks with my first. Not there yet with the second!

I am currently 31 weeks and didn't have a bump until 20 weeks. People only started to notice / made comments at 26 weeks. She is my first. Now the bump is massive and cannot be mistaken for an over-induldged post-festive food baby haha!

@BananaCustard85 I've caved and ordered some maternity jeans from Newlook. At least I'll have them ready for when I do need them!

Can't remember for sure with the singletons but with our twins I looked more pregnant than podgey at about 17 weeks. I'm 5ft 8 so carry pregnancy well.

I’m 21 weeks and have had a noticeable bump for the last week or so x

I'm 30 weeks and feel it's noticeable to strangers now where as before I did but it was clear enough for someone to comment on

About 21 weeks

With DC1 I was still wearing my normal jeans at 31 weeks but had an obvious (but small) bump from about 25 weeks.
With DC2, I had a small bump by 16 weeks.

I'm 16 weeks and today I had to unbutton my skinny jeans when sitting down for the first time. I noticed a tiny tiny hint of a bump at about 10 weeks, but I have an incredibly flat stomach previously. Then weeks 10-15 I didn't notice any real difference, this week it is a tiny bit bigger but definitely I'm quite a way off needing maternity clothes or anyone else noticing. I'm 5'6" and size 8-10 with big hips and strong abs though, so I think the baby naturally fills my hip space first. I also apparently have a retroverted uterus so I think the bump 'pops' later.

I’m currently pregnant with my 1st and my bump has been out since I was about 16 weeks. I’m quite tall and slim so I imagine it’s got nowhere to hide!
