Is it too soon?

So, I don't know about you ladies, but I randomly rest my hand on my stomach. Today when I did it, I noticed it wasn't "flabby" feeling like it has been with bloat, but feels firmer, more like a pregnant belly. Everything I've read says that you don't get your bump until 12 weeks and later. Am I going crazy or has anyone else's stomach firmed up? Smile

    I noticed that exact same thing this weekend!

    Before my belly was very squishy and loose. Now its much firmer with just a little bit of give to it.

    I read this weekend that everyone begins to show at different times based on the location of all their organs - not just uterus. I guess if your bowels sit a little low it pushes your ute out sooner, ect.

    I'm right where you are date-wise and there is definitely something going on down there Smile Nothing that sticks out like a bump, but I can't sleep on my stomach anymore because it's uncomfortable and I defintely feel like there is something more firm. I don't know if it matters but I am pretty thin so I'm wondering if that's why am starting to feel a change so early.

    I feel like mine is firmer and not as much like a beer belly now.  It doesn't feel the same way that it felt when I was heavier and had a bigger stomach.

    I'm the same way! My tummy seems to be firming up a little bit.. and when I went to my doctors appt. last week she said it felt like my uterus was starting to pop over... I'm excited to show, but I'm definitely appreciating the time I have to hide it still!

    Mine has felt firmer, but it seems to be bigger and firmer later at night. It is smaller in the morning. Even though it looks like a baby bump, I think it is still bloat, just really firm bloat.

    There is definetly something going on down there, but I do not think that it is the baby sticking out yet.

    This is baby #2 for me and I *definitely* am showing. (11 weeks today) 

    My first one took a little longer, if I recall, but if you're slender, you certainly might show sooner than those of us with some extra padding!  :D

    I am 9 weeks and I feel like my belly is firm too. My pants don't fit anymore and I have a little mound showing. I know it's not the baby, but I feel like it is starting to look like a bump!

    I noticed that my belly is starting to get more firm too. I'm a little chubby, so I already have a "bump" of fat, but it is firming up some.

    i think when they say that stuff they mean people on average. therefore, i am convinced you're feeling a legit bump! :)
