First time mums, when did you start showing?

[Amtheyest17]

Hi,

So I’m currently 11-12 weeks (app says 11weeks when I went for a scan thought I was 7+2 but the scan said I was 7+6)

I feel like I’m already ‘showing’ I wake up and my tummy is still pretty flat with a teeny bit of bump but within half n hour seems to pop out and full on bump by end of day. I’m an 8-10 on my waist usually!

I’m really stressing about the weight gain and I’ve basically lived on beige foods last few weeks as all I can manage but I’m worried I’m already bigger then I should be. My MIL has commented and said I’m big for where I am at!

When did everyone else start to show?

I'm 30+4 and still don't look very pregnant, I wouldn't say I even looked vaguely pregnant until 28+ weeks but I am tall and slim. Keep getting sent for growth scans as fundal height consistently under the ideal but baby is fine! I get married in a few weeks and I bet I'll pop the night before and my dress won't fit!

The smaller you are the earlier you show . You said your waist is 8-10 so you are tiny so likely to show sooner rather than later!

This definitely wasn’t the case for me, size 6/8 pre pregnancy and I’m 34 weeks now with a very small bump and still don’t even look pregnant tbh.

@Thefaceofboe everyone's different and height is a factor

I'm quite petite and started showing around 20 weeks. I felt quite bloated/fat very early on though and struggled to button my jeans.
