I was just wondering when everyone started showing,i feel like i have shown quite quickly. Iam coming up to 13 weeks and people are.saying i am showing now.
Also when do you feel baby moving ? Cant wait for this
 
Hi im 22 weeks and just started to show but it varies on people, I have a small bump but my baby is quite small anyway, got to go back next week for growth scan. A friend of mine started to show at about 8 weeks but she was very slim so it also depends on body shape. This is my 3rd baby so recongised the baby movements quite early at 10 weeks it felt like she did a somerassult, my 2nd baby didn't feel any movements until 16 weeks which is about average time and my 1st baby I felt move at 12 weeks but the movements generally feel like gentle flutters, so anytime soon x How are you feeling now? x
 
hi becca. i started showing early with this on. this is my 6th pregnancy, but 4th baby. i was about 6 weeks. but thats because everything is looser when youve had a few. with my first 1 i was about 4 months. i also think because i have just lost weight i showed quicker.

i also felt slight flutters from around 11 weeks. you know the difference between wind and flutters, it feels completely different. im 18 weeks 3 days now and can feel my baby alot. i find out what im having on the 20th december, i cant wait. ill be half way through:D:D

keep well

I feeling ok thankyou,feeling a lot more tired than normal.
Im showing and im 13 weeks tomorrow, i feel huge already hehe but its the bloating.
I have put 6 pound on already dreadin to see how much overall i put on but so excited for the babys arrival hehe
 
hi becca im nearly 12 weeks showing loads i look about 16 weeks this is my second baby (4 year age gap ) what is ur due date have you had ur scan yet ? i have mine few days after xmas x
 
With both of mine I got very bloated from day 1 but didn't get a true baby bump until 12 weeks.

With my daughter I got flutters at 14/16wks but with my son it wasn't until 18/20wks and he was much bigger, strange??

I'm 14 weeks tomorrow my belly has seemed to grow loads in the last week although last check I'd only gained 1lb. I feel huge, I feel like people won't believe I'm showing already and it's just fat but I know it's not although I'm far from skinny x
 
Yeah me too soon won't be able to wear my work shirts lol oh well soon we'll have a clear bump :)
 
Dying to finda thread like this! My work trousers are generally tight fitting - just cos I preferred that ... But then put them on today and they were digging into my tummy... Scared of doing something to damage baby so I went to m&s sale and got dressy black work trousers but stretchy in sale for 11 :0) but what scares me is I'm only 7wks :0/surely that's very early to see even a slight change
 
Hi Becca,
I gained the weight in my 3rd trim last time just cos of my diet I wasn't really eating healthy just eating the food I fancied and thought I would lose the weight afterwards but its not that easy.

The kind of stuff I was eating was few take aways each wk, fizzy drinks and the odd chocolates alot of the weight went on in the last mth of pregnancy I was 2 wks overdue so that didn't help and my baby was quite big 9.6lbs.
I wasn't well after my section I was dehydrated and my babies sugar levels were low so the midwifes tried her with formula just toget her sugar levels up and she wasn't a very hungry baby and went down to about 8 lb. But generally in last trim alot of weight you gain is the fat stored for breastfeeding and cos I didn't really bf the weight fell in the first 2 wks I lost about 18 lbs without dieting but you can lose weight by bf too.

It just depends on the individual when you gain weight during pregnancy, with my first baby I lost 2 half stone in begining of pregnancy and only gained stone of that back on my baby weighed 6.10 lb so after birth I felt amazing I was up walking around after my section alot sooner.

I really don't think you need to worry I remember you saying your only 11 stone so if you only do gain about 2 stone or even a bit more your probably beable to lose that weight quite easy as baby, fluid, blood placenta can weigh a stone or more but when your baby arrives your be so happy you won't be worrying about weight x
