1st Trimester

Our Bumps

Understandably most of us are dealing with bloating which is why we look like we have baby bumps. Question though...are and of you ladies starting to devlop an actual bump not bloat? I dont really have a bump but my lower abdominal area is poking out more and actually starting to feel hard now not squishy. Is anyone else having this happen to them also?

 

Have a great Friday everyone :)

Re: Our Bumps

  • I'm 12 weeks and I def have a little bump...even the doc commented on it last week...it still tiny and the bloat above is much bigger Smile.  This is my second though so I've heard you show faster.

  • Haha yes the bloat its much bigger than the bump. DH commented the other night about how cute my " baby belly was" hahaha I had to inform him that wasnt the baby I was just bloated.
  • Ugh the bloating is sooo bad. Then people are like trying to touch my stomach and I feel stupid because I know it's not baby at all but they think it is.

    Anyways, I do noticed the lower part of my abdomen is firmer but not hard. The doctor showed me where the top of my uterus was and I can feel it. It's like, and inch and a half above my pubic bone.

    I can't wait for the real bump, I want it so bad! I'm 150 lbs and 5'6" so hopefully soon I just pop!

  • I too am a second-time mommy and think I'm gaining weight and bump faster this time but I feel a firm tummy bump at the bottom and still bloat at the top.  Drives me crazy to be growing out of my normal clothes this soon.  I didn't show for quite a while the first time.

  • I was going to post that same question. I feel like today at 10w0d that below my belly button is more firm than it was before. Now granted that area was already a little big (I'm not a tiny person, but last year I did lose 75lbs) it seems like all of a sudden it is now firm and I had to un-do one of the buttons on my pants at work today, it seems too tight.

  • I have a tiny bump... and I bloat up throughout the day hah.

  • I'll be 12 wks tomorrow and I'm sure a lot will say that it's still just bloat, but I'm very tiny and am definitely getting a bump!  It started really firming up this week so I know it's not a lot of bloat.

  • I am starting to get just the tiniest one. I am very short waisted and was fairly slim to begin with, but I've started noticing that below my belly button is definitely starting to poke out just a wee bit, and it's hardening up.  It was definite bloat at first, but now it's there first thing in the morning, and then I bloat on top of it throughout the day.  No doubt in my mind that it is the very beginnings of a bump though.

  • Sadly, mine is just bloat and my previous mommy tummy from my first pregnancy. I started showing with DS around 12 weeks though. Maybe I'll show a little sooner with this LO? =]

    My ute is up very high already so almost my whole lower belly is hard. When I wake up in the morning it's still there, and I can't suck it all in. Real bump here.

  • Just This week I started to get a little bump for the first time. It's only noticeable to me, my husband, and a couple close friends who know I'm pregnant & are looking for it. It's definitely less squishy than the rest of my belly. I had to wear one pair of pants unbuttoned this week, but my others still fit. It's definitely starting.
