Q: BABY BUMP!

I was just curious as to when you ladies started noticing your baby bump? preferably your first pregnancy..

I am a little over 4 weeks and am not showing at all which I figured was completely normal until I was looking at some baby bump pictures and noticed some ladies completely showing at 5 weeks! I know everyone is different, this my first pregnancy and was just curious when you ladies first started noticing yours :) thank you!

I am 18 weeks, and my pregnancy really differs from most on this site... But here I go anyways. I started to really show at about 13 weeks, but I am also baking two buns in this oven! My little buddah belly was noticeable to the public at about 15-16 weeks, and now I am visible to the aliens on other planets at 18 weeks... LOL :)

This is also my first pregnancy, and I am starting to notice a little bump. I am 10 weeks pregnant. although I don't think it is very noticeable to others yet, it is definitely noticeable to me and my hubby as well. who knows I could be super bloated like in the first weeks. everyone told me I won't show til 5 months since this is my first pregnancy. I beg to differ because like you said, every women is different. congrats by the way!!!

I didn't start showing until at least 18-20 weeks or so... but it still depends on the day and what I'm wearing. I've never had anyone ask or guess that I'm pregnant, but then again I haven't gained much. Anything in the 1st trimester is bloating, because baby doesn't weigh hardly anything yet!

at 12-13 weeks I noticed a tiny bump but to others it just looked like a muffin top. I really popped at 15 weeks and started looking pregnant rather then just like I gained some weight. My belly got a lot rounder.

I didn't really start to show with my first till I was 21 weeks. The top of the uterus isn't high enough usually to tell. Like right now I look like I showing some ( this is my fourth kid) but its really fat that is showing since the top of the uterus isn't even halfway to my belly button.

Bloating is the cause of the "early bumps" The baby is still way too small to be seen that early. I noticed a small bump around 14 weeks and I got my true bump around 20 weeks. It will come...

I had a little bit of bloat around 5-7 weeks (it was soft--not a baby bump), but it went away. Now at 13.5 weeks, I have the littlest baby bump that only shows in some clothes, but the difference is it's firm and rounder, not just extra padding around the middle! Even so, I had someone at work guess I was pregnant about two weeks ago! She said she could tell from my slightly changing figure (I had the smallest bit of weight, but I didn't think I looked pregnant yet--maybe it was the boobs) and my skin, but I guess some women can just recognize the signs.
