    I can't wait for that, lol. I'm 22 weeks and I think it's becoming more obvious but not at that level yet. Congrats! :)

    WOO HOO.  I'm almost 20 weeks and just look a little fat. Can't wait for a stranger to ask when I'm due or what I'm having.  Then I will know I don't just look like I haven't been to the gym in a while.  

    ***SIGGY WARNING***

    DX: Unexplained
    6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).  
    IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN,   IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1  BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical 
    Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg.  Endo biopsy=negative.  WTF is wrong with us???
    12/18/13 FET of 1 BB and 1 AC.  Hoping for a miracle.  Beta 12/26 Low BETA-8 2nd BETA 5- chemical
    After 3 failed transfers IDK where to go from here.  Still no real answers as to why this isn't working.  Getting a second opinion in February and looking into immune testing.  
    2/14- NEW RE- Immune testing showed a partial dq alpha match with DH- On prednisone and did intralipids prior to transfer.  3/14 Lupron, gonal f, menopur, HGH.  ER 15 mature all 15 fertilized!  5dt of an early blast grade 1 and an expanded blast grade 2.  BETA on 4/21.  1 grade 2 embryo frozen
    BETA #1 59 BETA #2 148 BETA #3 283 BETA #4 2,783! US at 6w2d shows 1 bean measuring right on track! HR 121.  US at 8w3d measuring on track HR 177. Released form my RE.  EDD 12/28

    I know your frustration.  I am not a small girl to start with so I just look fat but not pregnant.  It sucks.

    I hear that. I'm a bigger to start with so at 18w I don't look any different. My mother and friends keep saying "you're not fat you're pregnant" yeah...so what was my excuse to look exactly like this 19 weeks ago? lol I'm excited to get past this point for sure.

    My co-workers were noticing that I was pregnant at 12 weeks. I am small and they noticed that my belly was looking more like a ball. No one thought I was fat. No other parts of the body are growing so maybe that's why.

    I'm 26 weeks and a very honest friend just admitted that if he didn't know me he'd just think I was fat. Oh well.
    It's a girl! Due November 22, 2014

    I can't wait to actually look pregnant. I'm 20 weeks and am really thin so I just look like I have eaten a big lunch.

    That's great!  I can't wait for that day too.  I went to a wedding this weekend and had to find a dress that fit right.  I have a really cute maternity dress, but I'm not big enough to look pregnant in it, but I am big enough to look fat in it.  I ended up finding something with more of an empire style.

    Part of me can't wait till I "look" pregnant, but I also feel like at that point, it'll start getting uncomfortable moving around and trying to bend over to tie my shoes... Trying to embrace the size i'm at now.
