Ok. I heard that it all depends on your
build. Well, I am 5'4" and weigh 161lbs.
I am 11 weeks and im not shure if im
showing or not yet. My belly is alittle
bit hard so I dont know if that means im
getting bigger. But whenever I stretch it
hurts. Because im not the skinniest
person in the world, am I gunna show later
on in pregnancy because of my build? Was
anyone near 161 and was 5'4"? If so, when
did you start to show? I bought maternity
clothes and everything so I hope I show
soon. I dont know why but pregnancy is so
exciting and im not even in my 2nd
trimester yet!

I am 5'7" and when I fell pregnant I
weighed the same as you (11 and a half
stones). On my wedding day I was 16
weeks pregnant and I had a little bump.
By the time I hit 20 weeks it was a
definite baby bump. It was only in my
last trimester that I blew up like a
balloon!
But like you say, everyone is different!

I was about 150lbs & 5'5" when I got
pregnant. It all just depends. Everybody
is different. Most people don't really
show until they're close to 20wks. I had
a pointy little bump at 17wks, & by
the time I was 20wks, you could
*definitely* tell I was pregnant. I
didn't start wearing maternity clothes
until like.. October or .November (5th or
6th month for me). So it all just depends
on you & your baby! I'm almost 36wks
now & .I'm absolutely huge.
I was 5'5 and 115 lbs when I got preggo
and didnt show until 6 months. Afterwards
I lost even more weight and now I weight
110 lbs.
But I think it depends on a lot of things
and I think genetics play a role too.

I was overweight when I got pregnant and
didn't show until 35 weeks. I never got
very big and once I was noticeably
pregnant people couldn't believe I was due
in a month.

Before I got pregnant I was 5'6 and
between 120 and 125 lbs... Now i'm 5
monthys and i'm 135 lbs and showing quite
a bit, my belly looks like a basketball,
but I have a friend who is only 2 weeks
behind me and you can't tell she's
pregnant at all. I agree with everyone
else, it depends completely on you.

you dont know how you will carry...Your
build inside and the position of the baby
determine that and every pregnancy you
will carry differently...
