Hiding the belly?

I'm only 8 weeks, but I have a little belly already. I'm normally on the slim side, so I am nervous I am going to show very early. I have a small muffin top now! Chat Icon

How am I going to hide this?!? (I usually wear fitted dress shirts) It would be so unlike me to start wearing blousy/loose tops. I'm so stressed about what I wear everyday because I think you can tell.

Any other girls that started out slim?? How soon did you start to show?

I was the same way and what I did was buy button down shirts that were fitted and tucked them into my pants and put a belt. It was harder to tell. I also would layer up. So I would put a button down under a v-neck sweater. It looked cute and it bulked me up everywhere else too. I was 8 weeks around this time with my first and it isn't easy to hide.

That's already like my "uniform!" I usually wear a button down tucked into dress pants and added a cardigan today however, I felt like you could see the bulge right in front. I'm probably just paranoid because I guess it's so obvious to me.

Wear a cardigan....that helps a lot.

I had a hard time too bc i wear fitted clothes to work and I was going nuts. I wound up telling at 9 weeks bc we had already had a couples sonos.

I layered with looser cardigans, but didn't button it. It was worse when I buttoned it because it pulled. I also subbed with some business casual dresses.
