I'm new here, I'm very excited to be posting here! I am almost 7 weeks. For mommies that are a little further along than me, or people who have already been mommies, when did your belly start showing? I don't necessarily mean showing to the public, but when did you yourself notice the shape of your belly was changing or notice your pants were tight? I think I'm denial that I'm really pregnant so I want a belly so bad. (I'm sure when I get further along, and am big and fat, I'm going to be wishing I didn't have one LOL.)

Re: When did your belly start changing?
I have had a few random days of bloat, but not nearly as bad as some have explained it to be. My clothes still fit the same on most days. When I do have an off day of bloat its like all over belly to a$$ bloat that just makes my jeans uncomfortable for the day. Those are the days I swear I am just going to give in and wear my mat jeans, but the next day it is gone
I am about 5'6" and wear a size 4 pretty consistently. My OB said with my torso he would not be surprised if I don't show much before the 20 week mark.

This is how I felt with my first.
I feel I've been showing a few weeks already with this pregnancy. I haven't brought out the maternity pants yet but I will soon.
I'm 13 weeks, and I noticed about 2 weeks ago that my waist is disappearing.My stomach was not flat to start with, but it was almost there. Even when I was overweight a few years ago I had a waist, though. I started having to rubber band my top button last week, and now I am wearing my "fat pants" from 2 years ago (before I lost 45 lbs). Luckily, they are still too loose in the legs!
I honestly think I am the only one to see that I am obviously pregnant, but I have been getting remarks from very tactful coworkers that I am "gaining back the weight I lost." I really do want to start obviously showing so that I can feel better about myself!
