When did Everyone START to sHOW!


jen wrote: Don't you find it so crazy how one woman at 5 months can have a perfectly round belly and everything else be normal and another woman has a huge belly and has rounded out everywhere, still beautifully pregnant of course but totally different. Then there is people like me who you would NEVER EVER know I am pregnant, I just look like I have packed on some weight! ha ha! biggrin.gif Even At my first u/s I was told the baby was more developed and bigger and my EDD was changed. ha ha! and I was told I wasn't big enough by my entire family!!!!!!!!! Then I ran into this lady today who was really showing! I mean really really showing, I thought she was 8 or 9 months! and she was 6 months!!!!!!! Well here are my pictures as you can see I don't show all that much. The only recent pictures I have here are of me with my best friend's daughter and my horse from this past weekend. wavey.gif

jen replied: here is another one with my little goats!

jen replied: and some more, she is soooooooooo cute I can't resist!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: OMG!! You aren't showing at all! I was that way with my first. I think I was about 6 months along before anyone could tell I was pregnant. Then over night I popped out. LOL!

This time is completely different. I started showing immediately. tongue.gif I really think I did. I was in maternity clothes 2 weeks after finding out I was pg. It's like your muscles say "Hey! I remember this!" And just relax. rolling_smile.gif

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I was going to post a picture, but it was HUGE! I have them posted somewhere on here. I need to take more....I am 23 weeks now and my tummy is getting bigger. I haven't gained weight anywhere else, though. Thank goodness! tongue.gif

MomToJade&Jordan replied: I carried so high with Jade that I really didn't start to show until I was at least 5-6 months pregnant. I have large endowments and that just hid that pregant belly from everyone. Even when I was 9 months I didn't look like I was that pregnant. When Jade was born it didn't take but a couple of days to look like myself again. People said I didn't look like I just had a baby.

Kirstenmumof3 replied: With my first baby it wasn't until about the 5th month when I really started showing. With my second I was around 6 or 7 mths. With Claudia I didn't gain any weight at all so I wasn't really showing much. I think it was the last 2 or 3 weeks when I finally was showing a bit more.

By the way you look GREAT! thumb.gif

CantWait replied: With both pregnancy's I started to show around 5-6 months. You look GREAT thumb.gif

Hillbilly Housewife replied: Well with Zach I realy packed it on..... so I didn't look pg, but I looked 30 pounds heavier withint 3 months....becasue I was. Heh emlaugh.gif

Other than looking fat...I only looked pg at around 7 months.

At the moment, I am 35 /2 weeks, and some people at my work are coming up to me and saying:

"You're going on maternity leave next week? I dind't even know you were pg! Couldn't tell!!!"

So 'm not that big. My boobs and my tummy only have a little difference between them.... i gained only 37 pounds so far this time. biggrin.gif

ediep replied: I started to show about at 5 months and even then I was pretty small.

chloe&tysmommy replied: me too...I was 5 months when I started to show. (1st child)

A&A'smommy replied: i was five months and then i blew up...how far along are you?

MomToMany replied: Well, I'm fat to begin with, so it takes me longer to really "show" that I'm pregnant. Most people must think I'm just really fat. I wear baggy clothes all the time, too. Don't like too much attention paid to myself. So, after the 6th month I guess it's really "noticeable".

dolfinrse replied: I was about 4 months pg when I first noticed. It was around Christmas and I know this because I went to get dressed for Christmas Day and I looked in the mirror at the clothes I had put on and all of a sudden there was this belly there. rolling_smile.gif

jen replied: Thanks everyone! I guess i will show one day and I will be soooooooooooooo happy!!! biggrin.gif I will post more pics when I do!!! I am buying maternity clothes like CRAZY! haha! I probably won't get to wear half of them! OH WELL! that is what EBAY is for right??!!! wavey.gif
