Pregnancy - Second Trimester

Mine didn't stay rounded when I laid down/sat down until very recently. And really until about a week ago no one outside of my DH and close family could even tell I was pregnant.

Mine stayed rounded when i laid down at 15 weeks, not huge, just enough to know there´s something there. I´m 16 weeks now and can feel the edges of it when i lie down.

Mine for the past 2-3 weeks has been rounded when I sit and when I lay down, of course my stomach gets flatter, but there is a definite roundness to it.

First of all with the symptoms, mine started dying off at like 12-13 weeks. Before then id had terrible morning sickness, sore boobs and constipation. It differs for everyone, but you are coming to the end of first tri, so I suppose your symptoms probably will start to die off now.

As for a bump, Ive only just started to show and Im 26 weeks, but I know theres some girls who've been showing since like 8 weeks or something. Again, everyone is different.

You can't really compare yourself to anyone else hun, because everyone is different and if you don't look or feel a certain way you start to panic.

Id say 10 weeks is very early ad I wouldn't have thought you'd be showing yet anyway.

Hope you feel better soon hun

WOW, at 26 weeks you just started to show? You are lucky. LOL

I remember when I was slouching on the sofa I noticed my waist was.... well not a waist. It was sticking out and I felt like I looked really fat. I think that was around 17 weeks but I'm not exactly sure. I didn't feel I properly looked pregnant till 19 weeks. I just looked like I'd eaten too much or was really bloated.

mine is only just starting to stay rounded when im laid down so i wouldn't worry about yours too much...

maybe i should worry about where my baby goes when im laid down!?

Great question - my belly is quite big as soon as I get in the shower in the mornings until when I get into bed at night, but first thing when I wake up in the morning it doesn't seem to be there! I was wondering where everything goes too? Although, if I compare my 4wks photo to myself now I guess I should know the answer - my waist is just so wide now - I used to have hip bones jutting out the front and now, well a 6 inch baby can fit it there for sure!
