Showing already! Help!

kschifferns

Hi all!  I need some help and good ideas on how to hide my bump.  Pregnant with #2 and have already started showing at 12 weeks on my slender frame.  We would like to wait to share with families until after my sisters wedding in two weeks, as she deserves the spotlight.  Several of my coworkers have already guessed based off the fact I can't hide my bump.  Any good, safe suggestions?  Thanks for your help!

It's just bloat. I can't be that big or hard to hide. Just wear looser clothing.

I'm "showing" too. Definitely looser clothing and layers (cardigans, etc) helps. We're announcing at 10 weeks because I can't hide it any longer.

OP, don't flag people for no reason and don't ask stupid questions. Otherwise you aren't going to last long around here.

Lolz fresh meat buwhaha. The naïveté is endearing. OP, suit up your big girl panties & grow a thicker skin.

I'm confused, is wearing looser clothes not working for you? Try empire waist tops, loose fitting clothes... Am I missing something? If your stomach is sticking out, wear looser clothes. 

Perhaps you could wear a caftan, or perhaps a moo-moo.

Yes, if all else fails just wear a moo-moo all day every day!  You might appear a little loony, but no one will EVER guess that you're just pregnant :-)

Loose clothes and caftans are working for me!

But you guise, are loose clothes SAFE??  If there is too much fabric maybe you could get it caught on a doorway and trip over your own two feet while you try to get it unstuck.

Literally just LOLed SO LOUD AT MY DESK!!!

I have seen several comments on other boards saying "...I'm so glad I decided to read this post, I almost wasn't going to click on this because xyz"

Ditto. Just ditto. So entertaining  ^:)^

You're SHOWING at 10 weeks? Are you sure it isn't just bloating? I'm having twins and I'm not even close to showing at 9 weeks!

I think by "safe" she maybe meant not compressing her stomach with anything. My mom used to wear a girdle when she was pregnant with my brother lol I'm not sure if it was UNsafe but in my opinion compressing your belly bump is a little odd....

I spanx mine all the time!
