If ur tall, when did u get a bump?

vanessagorc · March 2012

Tall ladies, when did u start showing?

I'll be 12 wks tuesday, and no sign of a bump. I look thicker, and my boob are HUGE (36 DD now). But i def don't look pregnant...I'm sure people are just thinking i'm getting fat.

I'm wondering if i won't show for a long time, bc my torso has so much room? I'm 6 ft tall, in bare feet.

i'm a little different because i'm having twins but i didn't get rid of the bloat/start really showing until 13 weeks or so. at that point i was measuring 16 weeks. but i'd say people started to really notice around 15 weeks. i definetly "popped" then. i'm 5'9

I went to a course today and mentioned to a co-worker about my upcoming maternity leave and she said she had no idea I was pg Sad

So @ 19 weeks, I guess I still don't look pg.

I didn't get a bump with ds until 26 weeks or so with ds.

I'm only 5'1" and will be 20 weeks on Monday and people still look shocked when I tell them I'm pregnant. I just look fat.

I am 5'9'' and with my 1st I was showing at 13-14 weeks to people that knew me and 16 weeks to strangers. I am normally fairly thin and lanky looking, LOL.

I'm 5'9" and didn't even get a hint of a bump until 23 weeks! I was getting so impatient. FWIW people could really only tell I was pg when I got to 30ish week. On the upside, I hardly had to buy any maternity clothes! I'm sure u look gorge, V

I'm not as tall (5'7") but I started showing a bit more at 16 weeks and popped at 19 weeks. By 21 weeks, strangers noticed I'm pg and coworkers comment on how pg I look (I was fairly thin before).

I am 5'8", and I did not get a bump till about 16 weeks. For comparison, there is a girl at my office who is pregnant and due 1 day after me. She is 6 feet tall as well, and also still has no sign of a bump. I think the taller you are, the longer it is before the bump occurs.

I'm 5'8, almost 23 weeks, and barely showing. A lot of co-workers have been shocked in the past week or so to find out I'm due in July. I get a lot of "you don't look pregnant at all!". I do wonder when I'll finally get a real bump!

FWIW, my OB said it all depends on your torso length. Short torso will/can show earlier than someone with a long torso. I'm 5'6" and at 23 weeks some random lady thought I was near the end of my pregnancy as well as carrying twins (only a singleton).

I'm 6ft as well. I will be 13wks tomorrow and although I look good & bloated there definitely is no sign of an actual baby bump. I was just thinking about this, wondering if it is because of my height or just because that's how my body is reacting to being pg.
