hi im 10 weeks pregnant and was wondering when people start to show. ive put on a bit of weight already and am feeling more rounded! but dont know if thats down to all the extra food ive been putting away,(cant stop!)worried i wont be able to lose it afterwards too?

I was different with all three of my pregnancies including my fourth now. With my first i didn't start showing properly until nearly six months but with my second i was near four half months and my third in the middle of the first two.
This is my fourth pregnancy now and you would think i'd no what to feel and look for but no nothing so i'm betting it will be awhile yet for this one.
Well good luck in getting your baby bump soon jew8

I'm 11-12 weeks and my tummy is as flat as a pancake still! Worried things may not be developing properley! I've always had a really flat & defined stomach and was wondering if strong abdo muscles mean the bump develops later? This is my 1st pregnancy and I've not had any scans yet to have a look everything ok- i too don't get the 12week nuchal scan! Can't wait to show so I feel pregnant!

am 19+4wks and just starting to show. i noticed tho when i was laid flat the first thing in the morning i felt a hard bump. i first felt this at 14wks. at 12wks i thought i had a bump but i could push it in. now its hard. as long as you eat healthy you should be ok. ive only put a few pounds on since i found out i was pregnant and in the first 3 months i lost a few. good luck with your pregnancy x x x

Hi AnneMarie,

I'm 14 weeks now and if you look have now just started to show properly. Have been showing (without my clothes) on for a couple of weeks now much to my partner's amazement. It's amazing how your shape changes there to accommodate the baby even if it is only 3 inches long! I told one of the girls at work yesterday and she said she had guessed as she had noticed my growing tum about a week ago.

Have already bought a few clothes ready to accommodate 'the bump' and sooo noticed my trousers feeling tighter yesterday.

I didn't really show until i was 20weeks, i did show at 9weeks but i was just bloated, it's not actually the baby usually unless it's twins!

hi,

i'm 9 weeks pregnant and i feel like i have been showing since i was 6 weeks! i have always had a very small waist which now resembles a tree trunk and my stomach has always been really flat and it now sticks out quite a lot! i have been told by other mums that this is completly normal and all pregnancies are different! it is a bit depressing because it just looks like your fat and not pregnant! I think that if your weight gain is steady and not excessive then you shouldn't have any problems losing the weight after, i'm also really hungrey all the time and i'm trying to snack on fruit everytime i feel the urge!
