Not quite ready to bring out the bump yet, haha. But I told a colleague yesterday, and she said she was wondering, as it looked like I have a little bump when standing in a certain way! I'm pretty small generally and this is my first, so I expect to be able to get by for a few more weeks before showing too noticeably.
I'm not ready either, partially just because I know it's all bloat/relaxed muscles for me. My actual uterus is still well below my bellybutton. I didn't really show my whole pregnancy (29 weeks) last time. I could hide it if I wanted, but if I wore a fitted maternity shirt I started to look a little pregnant around 24ish weeks, maybe slightly sooner. I am also pretty small. So you might be able to hide it for awhile longer if that's something you want to do.
I think I know what you mean... some days I look and feel pregnant, while others you probably couldn't tell (like today for some reason). Perhaps like you said, it's the bloat that explains the variation! It still makes me a bit nervous when I have a day where I'm not feeling very pregnant (then I get a round ligament pain and I feel more relieved, haha).
