When did you "pop"?

[Coco899]

Hi all!

Just wondering how many weeks you were when your bump first "popped"? I'm 17 weeks and still don't really have a bump! Not sure if I should be worried or if baby is just hiding.

This is my first and I've been told it takes longer to show first time round!

Thanks.

I didn’t show till about 23 week with my first but I was quite slim and started to just look a bit chubby! I think it depends on your build a bit?

I had a noticeable bump around 23 weeks. This is my 3rd baby.

I started showing at 20 weeks, just looked a bit bloated before that 😂 This is my second baby with a very big age gap, I am much smaller than I was with my first.

19 weeks with my first. Around 16 weeks with second.

No need to be worried at all, 17 weeks would be quite early to be showing on a first pregnancy. I didn't show with my first until 28-30 weeks. Am expecting dc3 now and it's barely noticeable to others at 21 weeks.

1st not until after 20wk. Earlier with others, especially our twins 16wk I had quite a bump.
On my 6th baby (5th successful pregnancy) and felt my abs pop at 15wk, people started to say I was showing from then. I still felt like I looked more podgey than pregnant until 24wk. Pretty big now at 32wk, baby was on the 97th centile for growth when I had a scan earlier this week.

Looking at photos I looked a bit bloated around 20 weeks and then suddenly had a proper bump about 28 weeks, although it was football up top in appearance, I didn't look "actually" pregnant until 32 weeks and then ds arrived at 37, so didn't look pregnant for long which was disappointing haha

23-24 weeks.

Ok this makes me feel so much better haha 😅 thanks so much everyone. I have nothing to worry about by the sounds of it! I'm a slim build so was expecting to show but clearly that's not how it works 😂 ❤️

It's just very annoying when people ask "where's your bump" not really much we can do about it!!

I’m 20 weeks now and still waiting for a bump. Below my belly button is definitely pushed out a bit and hard to the touch but unless I was wearing a skin-tight dress no-one would suspect a thing!

I live in a country where women have a ton of pressure to be thin so when I tell people I’m pregnant I get a lot of ‘compliments’ about how flat my stomach still is 🤔

I'm 13 weeks with my first and very much hoping I don't show until 20 weeks (we're not telling anyone til after 20 week scan). I'm also getting married at 15W3D. I have a bit of a podgy tummy and already will have to breathe in when wearing the dress but really can't put any weight on in next 2 weeks...doesn't help that all I really want to eat is cheesy pasta 🙈

I'm pregnant with my first and only got a bump at 24/25 weeks. I'm a size 10/12 if thats relevant.

I agree its so annoying people kept asking where I was hiding the baby and was I sure it was in there. Even if I wear a loose/baggy top now people don't always notice im pregnant

About 17 weeks but I did end up having quite a big bump.

This is my first pregnancy and I feel like my bump popped when I hit 14 weeks - me, my husband and family/friends were shocked I was showing so soon. I am petite though (only 5ft 3 and a size 4/6) so I guess there was nowhere for it to go but out!

I didn't really "pop" as much as become larger and larger from 12 weeks onwards... I still look more overweight than pregnant (I was a tall size 12).

First baby around 26 weeks
Second baby around 18-20 weeks
Third baby around 10-12 weeks

My bump only really popped around 30 weeks haha, took soooo long! For the majority of time I just looked bloated. I'm nearly 37 weeks now and still don't have a huge bump actually. People always tell me I'm tiny! Think it depends on the person/their build etc

I think it depends on your body size. I had a tiny little bump from 12w but it became pretty obvious pretty quickly. By 14w there was no denying I was pregnant.

I am a slim build, 5ft 5in and all leg. My body is short so baby had nowhere to hide! I only found out I had a short body when my best friend made my wedding dress and she had to cut loads of the bodice out!

13 weeks here and there’s no hiding it now! It’s my first too so I’m surprised by how big I’m looking. I do think a lot of it is bloat but there’s definitely no mistaking it’s a pregnant belly.
I’m going to be huge aren’t i?

With my first I was showing at 12 weeks but like a pp I have a very short torso and I'm only 4ft11 so baby has literally no where to go. I did however only have a smallish bump at 33 weeks when he was born.
I showed at about 8 weeks with my 3rd but sadly lost that baby 2 weeks later but I continued to grow until 15 weeks when they were born and I showed at around 10 weeks with my last baby but the bloat was unreal so it really just depends on a few different factors but as long as baby is happy and healthy it doesn't really matter

About 16 weeks

30 weeks ish?! Was constantly told I was small. He was born a healthy 7lb 4!

About 18 weeks.
