2nd Trimester

How much are you showing?

Hi there!! I'm 15 weeks and my bump is definitely making its appearance. I have a pregnant friend who didn't really show until around 17-18 weeks. What's normal? I know my baby girl already weighs 3 ounces.

  • I'm 23 weeks and hardly showing at all.

    What I've found is that in the second trimester, you think you're showing WAY more than you actually are. Because you're experiencing your clothes not fitting right and you know your body intimately, you're much more sensitive to the changes than those who see you at work, etc.

    In your third tri, people think you're bigger than you feel. By that point, you're used to hauling around a big belly, but people who see you occasionally, especially after you "pop" are much more surprised by how much you've grown.
  • I'm currently 26 weeks and just started showing last week. Everyone is different. It depends on your body type, strength of ab muscles, how many kids you've had, etc.
  • I've been showing since about 12 weeks, but this is also my third pregnancy (2nd child), and you show much sooner after your first!

  • 15 weeks, ftm, and I'm popping a bit. Might not be obvious to everyone but me and my hubby sure notice it, along with the friends I see regularly. Don't think there is a "normal" it varies woman to woman

  • I'm 23 weeks and barely showing. If you didn't know I was pregnant you would think I was just bloated. That's all. But their is no exact showing time. You just do when their ready

    23 weeks, and I went to toddler story-time at the library with my daughter. Almost everyone in the room got up to offer me their chair. I guess it is that obvious, but it is my second baby.

  • Ftm at 14 weeks. Feel huge!
  • Hi I'm pregnant with my 1st <3. I'm 24 weeks and a day and well everyone says I "don't look pregnant" but I sure feel it! But I'm sure there is no such thing as normal <3 so just don't stress out

    FTM, started showing around 13w, and I feel huge at 16w.
  • I'm 24 weeks and am pretty big already. There is no denying I am pregnant haha. My mom was teasing me today about how she has no clue how I'm going to get around when I reach my 9th month (thanks mom) But I'm really short waisted so there is nowhere for her to go but out! I've been showing since 12 weeks and this is my first pregnancy.

    I'm 25 weeks and I feel like I am ready to pop any day. This is my second  pregnancy and I am showing waaaaaaay more than my first. Sometimes I wonder if the doctors didn't mess up my due date, or maybe there are two babies in there...:P I don't know how I will manage these few more months...

    15 weeks and I feel huge! I'm 5'2 though so idk.
  • nofrogsnofrogs member
    I have heard that shorter moms and second time moms pop out more. A short mom has nowhere for anything to go but out.

    nofrogs You just made me feel SO much better.  I'm 5'0 and just over 12 weeks and I'm definitely showing.  I keep hearing from people that I shouldn't be showing this much so soon and it's making me feel bad about myself.  I weighed 129 before I found out I was pregnant and now I'm 125 so I don't think it's that I'm fat rather that I'm just short and the only place for things to go is outward. Thank you!
  • Oh thank god. I kept reading all the ladies saying they were barley showing at 24 weeks or how they were showing alot but it was there second or third child. I'm almost 26 weeks and I'm huge someone told me I look 8 months and this is my first I haven't gained more weight than what is normal but my belly is just huge.
  • I'm almost 19 weeks and not really showing at all.
  • 17 weeks and hardly got anything here
