Big Belly showing pregnant Posted: 03-07-08 14:44pm
Hi beautiful pregnant ladies!
I am in my 6th week of pregnancy, and
wondering just when you all who are
showing started showing? I have already
gained a couple pounds (water weight I'm
sure...) and am pretty self-conscious
about it and, at this point, am just
looking forward to my baby bump already...
What week did you all start showing?
Thanks!
Charlie

Hi Charlie, and Congrats on your
pregnancy!
I'm 19 weeks along in my pregnancy, and
only started showing about a week ago.
This is my first child so I too was REALLY
anxious to get my baby bump. It was
really weird cause it seems as if one
night you go to bed looking normal or
maybe a little heavier than normal and the
next day you wake up and your baby bump is
there. So far to this point it's been one
of the more exciting moments, as you feel
the urge to rub your belly and for the
first time ever let it all hang out. So I
guess it depends on everyones body type I
was pretty small before i got pregnant,
about 95lbs, and a size zero, so the Dr
said I may show earlier than some, but not
really. Hope you have a Happy and
healthey pregnancy, and before you know it
your baby bump will be here too!

Thank you very much and congratulations to
you. I'm petite also and was unsure if
that would cause me to show later or
earlier. Looks like later... Its fine with
me, as long as my little one is healthy.
Thanks for the response!

I am 9
weeks and 6 days pregnant and I start
noticing my belly growing since I am 6, I
know is not the baby, maybe fat?? jaja And
I am thin so its weird, I had to go and
buy maternity pants since my jeans are so
tight that I couldn't wear them no more!!

you physically can not start showing (due
to the baby) until after 12 weeks, because
until then yoru uterus is still tucked
under your pubic bone, before that any
"showing" would be bloating.....that being
said most people start shoing around 20
weeks (some could show before some after,
i personally didnt show with my daughter
until about 30 ish weeks) it also depends
on how you are built and how big your baby
is, if you are short you will show sooner
because the baby doesnt have as much room
so it has to grow "out" and if your taller
the baby can grow "up" so you show
later.....does that make sence?
good luck and i hope you have a wonderful
9 months
