Everyone is telling me that with their first pregnancy it took forever to show. Some ppl said 6 months and some ppl said they showed right away. Ok my thing is im 28 wks (7mths) and I still dont look all that pregnant. I have a belly but its not big. If u didnt know I was preg, u would never guess. So when did everyone show!!??

Hey

every woman is different. I started showing around 5 months, but my one friend didn't show until 7 months. Everyone has different body types, and gain the weight differently.

As long as you are healthy, that is what matters. And don't worry before you know it, you won't be able to bent over either ;)

good luck ! And enjoy.

I started to notice my bump around 20 weeks when I had my first scan but nobody really noticed I was pregnant until well over a month afterwards and from then on I kind of exploded and I got these awkward questions of when are you due. Grr that was so annoying

i, like you, am 28 weeks pregnant. I can tell I have a bump but it is not big enough for anyone to notice that I am pregnant unless they knew. But it's okay, I am sure we will get huge sometime soon! I hope!!!! Very Happy

I'm 25 and at 33 weeks pregnant with first baby and I weighed 105 before I got pregnant at 5'7. I have gained 35 pounds since then but I diddnt really begin to "show" i was pregnant until my 6 month. Even at 6 months it was still hard to tell if you had never met me before cuz you couldnt compare by not seeing my size previous to my pregnancy. By the time the 7 month mark hit you could def. tell I was pregnant. I think I'm the size i should be now but everyone i run into always tells me how "small" i am. it bothers me for ppl to say that so i asked my dr. if im to small. she looked at me with a smile and said to me, "your just right for your size... most woman only look huge at this point in pregnancy because they were a lot thicker then you to begin with and weighed over 160 from start". she assured me that im normal and healthy and that my baby is the right weight and length. actually my baby girl is a lil on the tall side my dr. said Smile so dont feel bad if your not big and buldging, im still pretty small but everything inside is A'ok! Goodluck in the rest of your pregnancy.
