If you weren't showing by 13 weeks...

I think whatever pooch I have is just from the 5 lbs I have gained... I still wake up with a pretty flat stomach.

For those who weren't showing by 13 weeks-- when did you start?

I *thought* I was showing at 12 weeks, and then every week after that, but in reality I would say @ 17 to 20 weeks. Check out my album if you like

At 17 weeks my shape changed. I started carrying higher and rounder and since then my shape stayed the same but got bigger each week. I really "popped" I think around 23 weeks. ETA: Progression pics in album

Re: If you weren't showing by 13 weeks...

I feel so stupid..I started wearing maternity pants this week (11wks). I constantly feel puffy and wasn't sure if I was "showing" or just getting a pooch. I'm not eating much but I have slowed down on my workouts.

Am I getting fat or just showing early?

I mean most people can't tell I'm preggo, but those that know me have noticed.

What's my deal?

Don't feel that way! A lot of us started wearing maternity pants early on. I think I started at about 10 weeks. It's all about comfort. So whether it be a baby pouch or some extra bloat, who cares? The fact remains that you are cooking a human and he/she needs space! Chat Icon Chat Icon

Don't feel stupid. Chat Icon I was wearing a bella band by 9 weeks. Maternity pants are so comfortable. It doesn't matter how early you decide to wear them. Personally, for a first pregnancy with 1 baby, I consider any bump in the first trimester to be more from bloat than anything else, especially since the baby is so tiny at that point. People have different opinions on that though.

I was really puffy at the beginning and then my bloat seemed to go away towards the end of my first trimester. I'm 18+ weeks now and definitely have a belly, especially after I eat. People who know me think I look pregnant, but I'm not sure what strangers think. Sometimes I think I look pregnant and sometimes I just think I look fat.

I wore maternity pants today for the first time! I am 11w as well. I just don't feel like wearing my regular pants anymore, they are getting tight an uncomfortable, and I really rather be comfy in this heat.
I have a little tummy, I think it's mainly bloat/fat Chat Icon

I guess you're right! Why not be comfy? I've been feeling less bloated the past 2 days so maybe that was it.

thanks!

At 12 weeks I had a little pouch and I used a bella band

Re: If you weren't showing by 13 weeks...

I have been taking pictures since week 7 and I am week 11 now...I can totally tell a difference in my belly. I look chubby to the "outside" world, but my friends and family see the difference-

I think it is bloat, but when I say that my aunt insists it is not and it is baby... I don't know... all I know is that I absolutely looking different and some of my clothes are not fitting right anymore.

At night it is worse though- I look way bigger and more "pregnant" at night-
