Anyone get big early on?

This may be a dumb question but I am curious to know if I am alone with this. I see a lot of first time moms like myself mention they they didn't really show at all until 25 weeks and beyond. For me, I feel like the opposite has happened! I have had a bump since about 13 weeks and now at 23 weeks it is pretty big! I haven't gained much weight at all (my guess is about 7-8lbs) but I find it funny that my belly got SO big SO fast... Especially the last few weeks! I know Chat Icon is measuring big so I am not sure if that has anything to do with it. I was shaving down there in the shower today and I was shocked to discover my belly already blocks my view! Chat Icon Chat Icon I thought that didn't happen until at least the 3rd tri! It doesn't really bother me... It's actually kind of funny but I was just wondering if anyone else had this experience!

Re: Anyone get big early on?

I had a belly before I got pregnant so I was showing right away. In my eyes, I thought I just looked fat but people told me I was already showing in my first tri. I had a hard time for a few weeks bc people kept telling me I looked further along than I was.
The turning point for me was at around 20 weeks when I felt like my belly "popped".

I think I got big very early on but it was also my 2nd pregnancy. We went on a family vacation when I was 8 weeks and in certain clothes it was obvious at that point!

I am PG with my first and I thought I was showing very early. I was in Maternity clothes at 12 weeks. At one point I think I was the same size as my sister who is due 7 weeks before me. No though at almost 32 weeks I feel like I am normal for where I should be.

It all works out!

I'm 9 weeks with my first and feel like I am showing already, but no one else sees it. I guess it's just me feeling self-conscious!
