Question ladies: I am 5 weeks pregnant
with my first child, and I was just
wondering when is the average time that
you all have started to "show"? I am a
little bit overweight so i'm thinking that
I prolly won't show right away... Any of
you ladies dealt with that?

start to really show till I was like 5
months! :| I thought my baby was going to
be tiny. But in the last couple of months
ive popped big time lol.. Ive only got

With my first, I started to show around 15
or 16 weeks. If you didn't know me,
though, you probably couldn't have told I
was pregnant. By 5 months, there was no
mistaking it.

When I first fell pregnant, I retained
water quite badly so looked like I had put
on quite a lot of weight. Then that
seemed to calm down and I looked normal
again, then started to get bigger about 18
weeks....But not to other people, I just
noticed it when I was in the bath. We
chose not to tell friends until after 6
months....No-one had noticed and they all
were supprised when we let them in on our
secret.
It wasn't until about 30 weeks that I have
started to show, but on in the last 2
weeks have strangers started to notice
that I am pregnant.....I only have 3 weeks
to go! Woohooo...

For me it became really noticable around 5
and half months. I am like you, a
health forum.
Also don't worry if you don't feel your
baby move as early as other people. When
you tend to have a bit of extra weight, it
takes a bit longer. I was worried but I
sarted to feel him soon enough.
