I think im starting to see a little bump emerge ... I'm roughly 12 weeks , dating scan is at 13 1/2 weeks. I just can't tell if it's bloating or a little bump...

I'm 25, first pregnancy, 5ft 3in and usually about 50kg.

When did you all start to have a little baby bump show ?

As you sound very slim it's likely to be a bump. X

I remember at 13 weeks feeling like I had a an obvious bump, but none of my colleagues realised till after 20 weeks.

Unexpectedlysinglemum · 27/08/2023 22:30

12 weeks bloating /bump - definitely an obvious tummy!

shzibssbns · 27/08/2023 22:34

Similar size/weight to you when i was pregnant with my first. I started showing properly when I was about 17/18 weeks

Runkle · 27/08/2023 22:39

Probably about 15 weeks it looked more pregnancy than weight gain- I lost weight due to food aversions so was definitely bump

Bloating for me until about 13 weeks (terrible first trimester constipation, I couldn’t face food at all). Definitely bloating because it all vanished when my bowels started working again at week 14.

I looked a bit fat at 20 weeks (lost my waist, basically). Proper bump/needing to wear maternity clothes by about 24 weeks.

In the first trimester, the enlarging uterus is gradually pushing the parts of the intestine that normally lurk in the pelvis, up into the lower abdomen, so even if the womb itself is only peeking up over the pubic bone, the tummy is enlarging.

I didn't

About 20ish weeks.We went to Rome and it felt like over night it just appeared like helloooo Rome 🤣

Coco9910 · 28/08/2023 07:17

I was about the same build as you, slightly older, and at 12 weeks I looked like I had a slight bump, but it was also just after Christmas so I was classing it as bloat / Christmas weight, but by 16 weeks I had an obvious bump! Looking at my 12 weeks bump now though it does look like a bump!

SolaceSoul · 28/08/2023 07:21

I am 19 weeks and no bump here. Just lots of bloat. I am not sure if I am feeling flutters every once in a while or that is food moving down my bowels

Roselilly36 · 28/08/2023 07:22

16 weeks with my first, much earlier with my second.

Bumble84 · 28/08/2023 07:25

I don’t think I started looking definitely pregnant until about 25 weeks. Anyone would be forgiven for just thinking I was bloated before that. I am quite tall though which may make a difference.

redxlondon · 28/08/2023 08:17

I’m 5ft7, 10 stone, and definitely felt I was showing from around week 8, but it was likely bloating. Since week 14 it’s definitely been a little bump. I’m at 15 weeks now and a few people have commented it’s a definite bump. I can’t wait to get bigger as it is a bump, but could equally be the pizza I had last night! So I think trust your body, sounds like you have the start of a beautiful bump.

Emsxox · 28/08/2023 08:41

About 16/17 weeks x

Janey3090 · 28/08/2023 16:11

Around 17/18 weeks, before that it just looked like bloat on me x

I didn't

At all, during the whole pregnancy?

LoveYouHoneybear · 28/08/2023 17:26

Tall and slim and didn't show until about 24 weeks with my first! Was showing around 14 weeks with my second though.

Haha same happened to me, about 22 weeks, went to Cyprus. I think it was the heat, she didn’t really move around much before either but during and after she kicked the hell out of me 😁

I am aware! Saw it recently on a FB reel thingy, this woman who only had a "1st trimester" bump by the time she delivered!

But was curious if this was the case with this PP!

To be fair, I think Id prefer that to a MASSIVE pregnant belly (Im not showing at all yet, at 8 weeks)

BabyLightning · 28/08/2023 19:19

Around 20wks I think. 5'4 and around 53kg before pregnancy. 5'4 and around 60kg now from eating too much crap to cope with the sleep deprivation 😂

Amidlifecrisis · 28/08/2023 19:24

Probably about 26 weeks. I’m 5’7 and was still wearing size 10-12, just felt like I looked bloated. Then suddenly a bump appeared overnight!

Meanwhile I was showing basically from conception with my second 🤦‍♀️
