Q: Where Do You Start to Fill Out First?
asked by: jenifercarrillo on November 2nd, 2004

Im just wondering when I do start to show if my stomach will start to fill out right under my belly button ( that area) or if it's going to get big lower in my abdomen (closer to my pubic hair). The reason I ask is because I have started to get this little hump about 3 fingers below my belly button, im wondering if this is the baby or if it's fat? Ewwwww! Laughing

That is where I started to fill out first too. It is always the worst . I like to call that the, "is she fat or pregnant?" stage. It will get better and then you will have a cute little bump!!!

I know that's how it starts you think it's that you are getting fat or look fat but it's not it's that you are starting to show and your baby is growing.

Awww thats the best part when you start showing.

Haha I know that is the stage I am in now too. I remember with my daughter all these people were asking my friends if I was putting on weight or if I was pregnant. I just started to wear maternity clothes sooner than I needed to to remove all doubt. Yes people I am pregnant ok!!!!! Ha!

Ps jess, I don't think you could ever look fat my dear you are too beautiful for that people would know.

I know I didn't tell my mom until I was 4 and a half months along and she just kept saying, "gosh carissa what are you eating you are getting so fat" I would get so mad and just say mom I am not fat don't worry about it! I would get so mad at her. Mom's can't live with em and can't live with out them!

Your 28wks barely showing!? Are u taking your vitamins hun?? When I was 28 weeks I was a monster! Lol and i'm even more of one right now.

I didnt start showing till I was 4& a half months. My tummy was as flat as a wall before that. I didn't tell my mom I was preggo till 4&a half months because it was really starting to show and I couldn't hide it.

But she noticed, and told me I was fat and needed to start doing situps, lol. I was so offended.

I was 98lbs before I was preggo and now im 120.

It's cute when you show because everyone is like super nice and you kind of get it your way.
When being super huge I bet it's a killer for your back. I am satisfy the way I look not too small and not too big i'm good. I have to post pics. My sister has a phone cam could you transfer it to the internet. I wonder maybe I could get her to take one of me and then i'll post it on here. I took pics but I have to develop them.
I want ya'll to see me already....
