Hi ladies.. I'm on my 4th child and took my 5 week bump pic..I know the more you have the earlier you show but anyone else like me have a Lil pot already ha xx
Here's my bloat bump with baby #2. It's not really a bump because it's flat in the am and I'm also not eating much. Just realized I'm cupping my boob in it haha.
At 5 weeks along your baby is literally the size of a pin head. Hate to tell you this, but regardless of whether you have had kids previously you are not showing yet. However, bloat is real, even some water retention - so you may see some of that
This is my second and I am definitely "showing" earlier than the first time. I am o ly 4 weeks 4 days. Mine is a little bigger than yours kgreen. It is really hard to hide it too because I am having a lot of cramping and can't wear anything to suck it in because it hurts. We haven't told anyone but might have to soon. I don't care what it is but it is definitely there.
Just you wait. You're asking for something that by month 7 or 8 you will be so entirely ready to be done with. Don't rush this experience. Enjoy your body at the stage it's at now. TRUST me... You'll thank me later.

@lalala2004 - agreed! Something a bit creepy about it at this stage.
I also very bloated and can pass as a few months pregnant but it don't want to flaunt that all over the interwebz. There are creeps that lurk on these type of sites.
Btw anyone thankfully we are KU now and not in the middle of summer? So much easier to hide the bloat under fall clothes
@yogahh yes! i am so happy to be KU this time of year, we can still wear cute clothes that don't give us away! also, i live in NYC and the summers here are pretty miserable.

I am in NYC too, but I LOVE the summers here! I am looking forward to the fall though. Last weeks humidty, while I normally would love it, was starting to bother me.
This is my 3rd, but its been 9 years so curious how soon ill show. I get a lot of bloat. My boys are 15 mos apart and i was showing right away with #2.
If you guys wanna show it then rock it ladies!! Crazy perverts lurk at beaches/pools too but that doesn't stop anyone from going! I've still got baby fat from DD2! Btw Yes I'm super glad to do a winter pregnancy! Both DDs were born in Oct (8years apart) so we went through the summer miserable!
I am a little bloated in the evenings, but it definitely looks like bloat, not a baby bump.
Also, I may be weird, but I totally want to paint my bathroom before I start taking bump pics so they look cute (not for Internet purposes, but for baby book). Lol
As I realize it's not a bump yet, I took a pic for reference later on. IDGAF who looks at my bloat as I love my body and maybe posting bloat pics here will make other women more comfortable with theirs too :-).

I can assure you that there is nothing pregnancy related to hide at 4 weeks 4 days.

I'll wait for a bump that's baby and not dinner.
