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!

This is my first pregnancy. About 13-14 weeks I had a tiny pudge, but at 17 weeks, it was getting hard to disclose. Now the past couple of weeks, folks are less scared to ask if I'm pregnant, but if I wasn't normally so thin, it could still be questionable at 21 weeks.

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 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 :)

My first pregnancy I didn't really have a bump until 13 weeks at least! This is my second pregnancy and I really didn't start to show until around 16/17 weeks which is backwards I know but I am in better shape now than I was the first pregnancy. When you start showing really depends on your body type, weight, how many pregnancies you have had, etc. I think 5 weeks is really really early though. I have several pregnant friends right now and none of them showed that early.

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.
