When do we start to show vs. looking PG?

I personally know that none of my clothes are fitting well anymore, and I'm showing a little bit (11 weeks), but I'm hoping I look more PG when my sister is visiting when I'm between 14-15 weeks.

Re: When do we start to show vs. looking PG?

I think everyone is different but I didn't pop until much later on. I didn't start "looking pregnant" until about 23 weeks. And even at that stage, it all depended on what I wore. Before that, I just looked chubby.

I declared myself to officially be "looking pregnant" at about 28 weeks. That's when it was impossible to hide anymore and strangers were congratulating me. That, IMO, is looking pg.

You can start to "show" a little earlier. Like, at 15 wks, if you lift your shirt to show your sister, she'll probably see a little bulge. It all depends on your size and frame too.

This is a pic of me at 16 wks (sigh!)...definitely did not look pg. But, like I said, everyone is different. Some people show more sooner.

Thanks but that was just about the end of that for me too. I'll never look like that again. Chat Icon

Well...at least not until AFTER my tummy tuck someday! Chat Icon

People tell me that I still don't have that noticeable pregnant look and I'm 26 weeks. Here is me @ 18 - (I don't have a 16w shot)

Everyone is different and of course you always FEEL bigger than you really are........I think I started to show at about 24 weeks and now the past few weeks I've been getting bigger, and bigger, and bigger............

I did not start showing till I was 20 weeks. Before that I just looked like I was gaining weight. I am having a girl and I gained weight everywhere. My belly was the last place to get bigger.

I'm 18 weeks and this week someone asked me if I was pregnant. Maybe depends on what I'm wearing and who is looking at me. The person who asked me is a mom, so she knows better.

This is a pic when I was 14 weeks.

Re: When do we start to show vs. looking PG?

I would say around 22 weeks it was obvious that I wasn't just gaining weight, but at 25 weeks I popped!

Here is 12, 17, 22 & 25 weeks.
